Peter Hoekstra, Republican Congressman and chairman of the House Intelligence Committee wrote a scathing letter to President Bush in May in which he states that the Administration may have broken the law with it’s spying activities. Specifically the failure to brief congress on the spying was mentioned.
The letter obtained by the New York Times includes the following tersely worded summation:
"The U.S. Congress simply should not have to play Twenty Questions to get the information that it deserves under our Constitution."
His evident anger suggests that the once lock-step support Bush had in Congress may be faltering. Or it may simply be Hoekstra trying to distance himself from a President with such low approval ratings. Either was it is obvious that not only Democrats think Bush may be guilty of illegal activities.
If so, let the impeachment hearings begin!
