[size=12] The US House of Representatives voted 420 to 1 to give the presidential commission investigating the BP oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico full subpoena power.
The Senate blocked it.
No subpoena powers. No real investigation. [/SIZE]
Having an 'investigation' that really investigates [and has the powers to].....hmmm....sounds pretty 'un-american' to me!!! It would certainly break with the long-established precedent! Why rock the boat?.....better idea to sink it...or just do nothing...it is sinking as we speak...
