House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers (D-MI) today issued a subpoena to David Addington, Chief of Staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, compelling him to testify before the Subcommittee on the Constitution, Civil Rights and Civil Liberties on June 26 for any knowledge of harsh interrogation techniques employed at Guantanamo Bay approved by the Bush Administration.

"This subpoena should not be controversial – as an institutional matter, all members should support our effort to learn the facts and to exercise responsible oversight in this area," Conyers said in a written statement Tuesday.

They will never get Addington under oath.
