I heard on Fox News yesterday...that the Senate Judiciary Committee had already scheduled a hearing into the SWIFT program for its "legality"...
So..if Arlen is demurring about having hearings, he is lying, or Fox News made it up.
After watching this morning on FNS, I sent him an email pleading with him to step down from his chairmanship of that committee. That he defended the NYTimes releasing this highly classified information, and not giving the benefit of the doubt to the administration anti-terrorism activities, it has become clear that Arlen is not the proper person to head the judiciary committee.
