This is -- according to Republican staff sources -- enormously frustrating to Specter. He cannot make document requests unilaterally using the power of the Committee. Only if Leahy joins in the request will it likely even be answered. Those staffers said that they cannot recall any instance in which Specter refused a Leahy request when the Republican was chairman of the Judiciary Committee.And Arlen Specter will not learn a single thing from this experience.

Yup. The Senate Republicans are like the Bourbons in France: they forget nothing, but learn nothing.
The real question is why that criminal Leahy is still in the Senate at all.
