TPM:
Why is it taking so long for the Justice Department to answer written questions from members of the Senate Judiciary Committee?
That's the question Judiciary Chair Pat Leahy posed to Attorney General Mukasey in a letter sent Wednesday demanding answers to hundreds of written queries from 11 Judiciary hearings going back over a year. Over one hundred of the unanswered questions were directed to then-AG Alberto Gonzales in July 2007.
Leahy writes:
It is my hope that the Department will answer all outstanding questions before the adjournment of the 110th Congress. You can set an example by promptly returning responsive answers to the questions posed to you in connection with the July 9 oversight hearing, which was more than four months ago.
