12:42: Sen. Kennedy moves for executive session to subpoena these documents* from CAP. Specter says this takes him by suprise but Kennedy says it shouldn't because Kennedy sent a letter about this topic. Specter says he didn't receive it and refuses to rule. Kennedy wants to appeal. However, Specter says there's no decision to appeal. Specter says he'll consider it and that he's the chair and moves on.
* William Rushers personal letters and documents
Basically it was a shouting match and Spectre told K that he did not run the committee.
Both were shaking afterward
Isn't Kennedy pretty much always shaking by noon, especially when he's been stuck in a hearing all morning?
Thanks save! Now I'm going to have to watch the rerun tonight on CSPAN. I usually avoid Teddy but this sounds delicious!
