It isn't the Barbarians at the gate we need worry about, it is the enemy within. Can anyone legitimately question why the White House would refuse to EVER release some sensitive documents to this committee ?
"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear." - Marcus Tullius Cicero 42 BC

Love that quote. My e-mail has gone out to j.r. calling for his resignation. As a W.Va. voter he has to listen and answer. Wish I had seen that quote before I wrote. It's perfect to send to traitors. Actually, we should send it to all the dems in the Senate.
