Constitutional scholar Tony Snow on ABC this morning:
The executive branch is under no compulsion to testify to Congress, because Congress in fact doesn’t have oversight ability. So what weâve said is weâre going to reach out to you â weâll give you every communication between the White House, the Justice Department, the Congress, anybody on the outside, any kind of communication that would indicate any kind of activity outside, and at the same time, weâll make available to you any of the officiels you want to talk to â¦knowing full well that anything they said is still subject to legal scrutiny, and the members of Congress know that.
