The Dixie Chicks do great ‘back up’ and understand what it really means to be Texans.

So, to the House Democrats this poem:

(with apologies to Matthew Arnold)

“To see if we will press our investigation at last,
To see if we will at last be true
To our own long-forgotten constituencies,
Being one with which, we are one with our selves;
Or whether we will once more fall away
Into some bondage of the minority or our fears,
Some slough of the leadership, or some fantastic maze
Forg’d by the imperious unitary executive.”

However, I would take anything John Helgerson says very seriously; his investigation rather than the DOJ’s will be the one to watch, but unlikely to confirm anything that we don’t already know.

I never thought I would say this, but the time has come to disregard anything coming out of the Attorney General’s office.

There are still a lot- a whole lot, of very good, very dedicated, very ethical people working in the Department.

But the public voice of the Department is the AG who is at the service of the President.
