Democrats Heat Up Prosecutor Probe

By LAURIE KELLMAN, Associated Press Writer 21 minutes ago

WASHINGTON - President Bush's aides are lying about White House e-mails sent on a Republican account that might have been lost, a powerful Senate chairman said Thursday, vowing to subpoena those documents if the administration fails to cough them up.

"They say they have not been preserved. I don't believe that!" Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy shouted from the Senate floor.

"You can't erase e-mails, not today. They've gone through too many servers," said Leahy, D-Vt. "Those e-mails are there, they just don't want to produce them. We'll subpoena them if necessary."

1. Well Jesus, Pat, nice rhetoric--and glad you understand about emails,
but get with the subpoenas awready.

2. Maybe they're just clogged in the "tubes" of "the Internets"
The longer the WH plays stupid, the harder they're going to fall. I love how Leahy is playing that psychological game, although I wish he'd just end the talk and issue the subpoenas. The WH is not going to comply otherwise.
