"Give me a break! She absolutely should testify before the commitee. One, there's nothing lost if she does. And secondly, that would prevent the media and the dems from using her lack of open testimony as proof that there must be some substance in Clarke's lies!"

What’s “lost” if she testifies is this committee fading from memory rather than a second round of high profile officials looking like defendants and democrats launching into anti-Bush diatribes in questioning. Another thing lost is Democrats ability to keep the administration on the defensive for another week carried live on all networks.

You really think that her testifying would keep Democrats from claiming it as proof that Clark has substance? I think they’d just call for the CIA Chief, Sec Def, VP and on until someone finally refused, and then they’d call that “proof”.

They already got Tenant & Rumsfeld - and Cheney and the President will be later - privately.

The other reason the President wants to do this privately is because they don't want to be heard critizing Clinton - which they will have to do because Clinton left a mess for them to clean up.
