A spokesman for Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice suggested that she had more important things to do than testify before Congress the day before a House Committee is threatening to issue a subpoena for her cooperation with an investigation into the evidence used to build the case for the Iraq War.
Meanwhile, a Republican Congressman sent out an “action alert” claiming that “we’ve gotten word that Waxman will issue a subpoena to Secretary Rice tomorrow morning,” adding that such a move could allow the GOP to show how Democrats are “trying to win the political war for themselves no matter its effect on America’s efforts to promote peace and democracy abroad.”
…The email continues, “Waxman’s actions border on harassment and will prevent the Dr. Rice from completing those duties entrusted to her office.”
