> Huh? Separation of powers? I don't think so. Name one National Security Advisor who has ever testified under oath before Congress. Get it.........9/11 was a national disaster. If the WH screwed up, then we need to know and that's what Congress is doing. Its called checks and balances which is a part of the separation of powers. The GOP twists and turns everything in the Constitution to fit its own desires. We saw it during the 2000 election with the Sup. Court and its been downhill ever since. You are not to be trusted!

re: Name one National Security Advisor who has ever testified under oath before Congress. I stumbled across the following and thought you might be interested, since you are such a stickler for accuracy: On 60 Minutes this weekend Rice said, "It is a longstanding principle that sitting national security advisers do not testify before the Congress." It is unclear what "longstanding principle" Rice was referring to since President Clinton allowed his national security adviser, Sandy Berger, to testify in public before the House Governmental Affairs Committee only 8 years ago and Zbigniew Brzezinski was allowed under President Carter.
