Senate Democrats Yesterday invoked Rule #21 and dragged the senate into a secret session.  The Pretext was that the Senate Intelligence Committee was dragging its heels on completing an investigation into the faulty intelligence for the Iraq War.

The Problem is, it has been completed, except for some foot dragging by the democrats!

According to Pat Roberts, the Chairman:

"We started on Phase Two in February of last year," Roberts said. "On May 17th, it was complete."

But -

when the committee was to begin examining statements by members of the Bush administration and Congress to determine whether the allegedly flawed intelligence had influenced their decisions, Roberts said Democrats balked.

So indeed this was just a cheap stunt.  Accomplishing nothing, but making sensational headlines.  Which is the only things the democrats seem to be able to do.  Nothing constructive, just impede and delay, pontificate and obstruct.

They have become a laughing joke to all except their rabid base.
