Well, people don’t go to committe hearings to address the press. You do that in interviews and press conferences. You go to committe hearings to *address the government*.

Uh... neither. They're going to committee hearings because they've been subpoena'd by Henry Waxman, so that he can craft some headlines for his political benefit during a tense standoff with the President over funding the war.

You thought that they went before congress because it was *their* idea? C'mon...

I recall both incidents vividly. I was paying attention. I don't need to research what was done and said at the time. If you have information to the contrary, then post it.

You said — “You thought that they went before congress because it was *their* idea? C’mon...”

Yes, that’s exactly right. I happen to have read of lots of instances where people wanted to give testimony to present their views and their side of things. So that is very much so — the case.

But, what you’re saying here is that Jessica Lynch *had to* come, because she was subpoenaed. It appeared to me that she was willingly going and very much *wanted to go* — as she said “to set the record straight. That doesn’t sound very unwilling to me.

However, I would like to find out about Jessica Lynch’s subpoena. When was that given to her?
