Sucking up to the Thuglican bullies

I wish I could get excited about the subpoenas that the Senate Judiciary Committee just issued for documents on the illegal domestic surveillance program, but, let's face it, nothing is going to come of this. The White House/Cheney will refuse to comply with the subpoenas. The Democrats will whine about it, but they won't have the guts to actually declare anyone in contempt of Congress. And, even if they did, it's Alberto Gonzales who has to enforce the contempt citations, in which he will be included.

Let's face it, these guys are going to get away scott free with destroying our Constitution and trampling over the law.

I had hoped that the Dems would have more guts once they got into power, but too many of them listen to the likes of David Broder, who would rather have them suck up to the Thuglican bullies than stand up for themselves.

What armies or police forces does the Congress command to force the executive to comply? If there are none, why call them wimps? They can declare contempt, but that doesn't go any further if the executive refuses to cooperate. The whole system depends on the executive showing restraint. Otherwise, the people have to man the barricades, and that's not going to happen. It's not a good situation.
