3. Key word in sentence
"May". That doesn't mean they WILL call him in to testify and even if they do, he likely won't show up anyway.

4. If he doesn't show up...?
Then, all the more reason to hire a special investigator. If Mr Cheney cannot clear this up, we will need to find someone who can.

5. Will he demand that Bush* has to be with him and not be under oath
or in public or have their testimony transcribed? That was what they did last time anyway...
