The 5th Ammendment...

"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."

Get ready. It is only a matter of time before we are going to hear those imfamous words "Respectfully Senator, I wish to invoke my 5th Ammendment right not to incriminate myself".

I'm taking wagers.

Who will be the first person in the Bush administration, or the Republican Congress, to invoke the 5th Ammendment? And when will it occur?

My pick.

Michael Hayden, current head of NSA
Date: February 14th
