Bush nearing constitutional showdown, Subpoenas likely today
By Laurie Kellman THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

"WASHINGTON— A defiant President Bush warned Democrats yesterday to accept his offer to have top aides speak about the firings of federal prosecutors only privately and not under oath, or risk a constitutional showdown from which he would not back down.

Democrats’ response was swift and firm: They said they would start authorizing subpoenas as soon as today for the White House aides. “Testimony should be on the record and under oath. That’s the formula for true accountability,” said U.S. Sen. Patrick J. Leahy, D-Vt., chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee. "
