Congress Presses for Justice Docs
By Paul Kiel - April 10, 2007, 10:28 AM

One last chance, or the subpoenas come out.

Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee along with ranking member Arlen Specter (R-PA) wrote Attorney General Alberto Gonzales yesterday to ask again for certain withheld documents relevant to the U.S. attorney firings. If Gonzales doesn't turn them over by tomorrow, the committee will issue subpoenas for them on Thursday, they write. You can read the letter here.

The committee wants all the relevant documents, all the lists, all the rankings of U.S. attorneys, every scrap of paper.

In particular, the committee members asked for Gonzales' cheat sheets on the firings -- The Washington Post reported last week that he was reviewing “thousands of pages of documents related to his upcoming testimony" to get ready.

They also targeted documents reported on by The American Spectator last week. The mag reported that certain files in the Deputy Attorney General's office had not been turned over to Congress: "the files include overviews and evaluations of at least a dozen current and now-former U.S. Attorneys, which were prepared by DAG and EOUSA staff to brief Deputy Attorney General Paul McNulty and his chief of staff Michael Elston."

1. Happy Days Are Here Again!

Happy Days Are Here Again


So long sad times
Go long bad times
We are rid of you at last

Howdy gay times
Cloudy gray times
You are now a thing of the past

Happy days are here again
The skies above are clear again
So let's sing a song of cheer again
Happy days are here again

Altogether shout it now
There's no one
Who can doubt it now
So let's tell the world about it now
Happy days are here again

Your cares and troubles are gone
There'll be no more from now on
From now on ...

Happy days are here again
The skies above are clear again
So, Let's sing a song of cheer again

Happy times
Happy nights
Happy days
Are here again!

THIS IS THE THEME SONG OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY SINCE THE END OF PROHIBITION!

"Happy Days Are Here Again" has also become closely associated with the 1932 campaign of Franklin Delano Roosevelt for the U.S. presidency, and was prominent at the Democratic Party Convention of that year. <3> Since that time, and until the candidacy of Bill Clinton, the song has been associated with the Democratic Party, and remains a sentimental favorite for Democrats.
