``The fact that a rogue element of the United States government may have been working with a foreign government in possible contravention of current foreign policy is a grave matter that should be of concern to every American,'' Conyers, the senior Democrat on the Judiciary Committee, said in a letter dated Tuesday to the panel's chairman, Rep. James Sensenbrenner, R-Wis.

Just keeps chipping away. Too bad it hardly ever comes to anything. Oh well, at least he tries, which is way more than can be said about a lot of other Dems in Washington.
