A Subpoena is only a polite request .

If the person fails to appear or documents are not forwarded, the matter is ignored like the Subpoena was never issued. This is how it now is in the New World Order of Amerika.

2. How dense is Congress? What constitutes and impeachable offense?
Do they think they can skate through this until 2008, and then they will be elected by default?

I will vote straight Democratic in 2008, but if we lose this time, I will start looking for third party alternatives

I have been a Democrat for about 30 years, and I have pretty much reached the end of the line with them, especially within the last 6 years

3. Aprox. three weeks ago Gonzo's E-mails were under Subpoena.
They have not been delivered. Consequence? Nothing.

Ms. Rice Subpoena to appear. She refused. Consequence? Nothing.

I am sure there are more examples.

6. Fine leave the party, thats your decsion
Because of one thing thats not going your way your gonna pack your bags and leave, then do it because we need every democratic voter in 2008 and your either with us or againist us. If you want to go and join the shill for the GOP known as the Green Party then do but I sir have something called loyality to the party and that will not change.

I have had enough of this, good day sir were done with conversation!!

7. It isn't just one thing, and you obviously DIDN'T read my post
As I said, I will vote straight Democratic in 2008, but my point is that it is the Democratic party that is leaving me

You jump to the conclusion that I will go green or republican which is also another incorrect assumption

You can have loyality "to a party", and blindly follow it right or wrong, but I am not a sheep sir, and if you believe in blind aligence, than I have had enough of that.

Perhaps I should point out to you SIR, that the lack of response by Congress to the ignored requests by this administration to testify before it, is an attack on our Constitution, and if those in Congress don't take steps to defend Congressional oversight and power, then they are effectively invalidating themselves. That will have far long lasting consequence than you and I could even imagine, and it will NOT matter which party you belong to in that case
