"The White House has refused to give Congress documents about the death of
former NFL player Pat Tillman, with White House counsel Fred F. Fielding saying
that certain papers relating to discussion of the friendly-fire shooting
'implicate Executive Branch confidentiality interests.'"
While it clearly looks like at this point, Bush is just blocking investigations as a way of getting back at the Democrats, the end result is that it makes them both look silly. I don't know why congress feels the need to investigate the death of a football player, and it doesn't feel the need to investigate the death of every other soldier. At the same time, what could Bush be trying to hide, what could be the importance of the materials he is refusing to hand over.
If they want to save electricity in Washington, they should send Bush back to the ranch and send congress home, nothing is going to be done until the election in 2008.
