unfortunately, the Dems manage to fuck themselves into a corner (yet again) on this one. they allowed the White House to stonewall them on the Roberts nomination, and ultimately confirmed him without getting all the documentation on his record. having set that precedent, they will now proceed with the Miers nomination and have not a leg to stand on when the White House claims exectuive privelege on her paper trail.
