Memo to the Senate Democrats:
Firing the Capitol Hill Memo Leakers May be Unconstitutional Excerpt:Over the past few weeks, several memos drafted by Democrats in the Senate have been leaked to the press. One memo, from the Senate Select Intelligence Committee, highlights how the Democrats planned to use the awesome power and resources of that committee as a political weapon against the President of the United States. The other memos detail how powerful left-wing interest groups pressured Senate Democrats to impermissibly oppose judicial nominations based on characteristics such as race and gender. Now the Democrats are outraged – not by the outrageous content of their memos, but by the fact that they were leaked. Senate Democrats have demanded a probe into these leaks; their request has been granted by Republican Senator Orrin Hatch. Though the source of the leaks may be revealed, the object of the investigation may be moot, as the Senate may be constitutionally prevented from acting against the leakers.
