If for no other reason, (and there are others) I am glad the Democrats were elected in '06 so we can get to the bottom of the serious shenanigans this administration has be getting away with for the past 6 1/2 years. I remember when Clinton was president, and the Republicans were initiating investigations constantly. Now that the Dems are digging in, suddenly they are accused of going on a witch hunt. Well, if the broom fits, fly it!
