Congress asks federal judge not to let Bush administration send disputed records to Archives

The new Congress has asked a federal judge to force the Bush administration to keep some of its disputed records at the White House instead of turning them over immediately to the National Archives.

Congressional Democrats have subpoenaed documents sought by investigators of the controversial firings of nine federal prosecutors. They want to ensure those documents don't get sent by the outgoing Bush administration to the National Archives as President George W. Bush leaves town, which they say could cause a delay in getting them back.

U.S. District Judge John Bates said he will make a ruling on Friday.

1. Hesitantly...could it be they really mean to pursue those criminals?

I know we have lots of work to do, but it would help my morale to know Bush, Rove, Cheney et al. were spending the rest of the nasty lives giving depositions. Over and over and over and over again. I don't imagine they will ever be punished...but could they at least be endlessly inconvenienced?

2. I hope so; they want the records for some reason. Once boosh

and his BFEE are gone, there might be no stopping them.
