I only have time for a brief reply. I don't know of an order, just a subpoena. Ashcroft should comply with the subpoena and produce the documents. He should want Burton to have them. If there are any documents which would truly compromise a legitimate, ongoing investigation, he should tell Burton and let Burton review the douments without getting copies (or work something else out). Burton is a reasonable, trustworthy man. There is no reason to keep anything from him.

That's all I have to say about it. You needn't bother posing any further questions to me.

"That's all I have to say about it."

Well said.

"You needn't bother posing any further questions to me."

Didn't plan to; now you can get your head back in the sand.
