Bush to Be Subpoenaed in Spying Case

Posted on Aug 29, 2006

From U.S. Newswire: “Two lawyers who brought the first lawsuit against the Bush administration, Verizon and AT&T for illegally examining the phone records of virtually every American citizen will announce today that they are serving subpoenas on the Bush White House and on Verizon.”

We suspect those lawyers may have a bit of trouble nailing down that particular deposition.

U.S. Newswire:

... “We are subpoenaing the White House because we have developed evidence that the Bush Administration began unlawful efforts to obtain Americans’ private phone records prior to 9/11/01 and the White House must disclose documents relevant to that claim,” said Afran. “We believe that Verizon had extensive involvement in illegally disclosing the records of millions of Americans.”
