I missed this item from a couple of weeks ago. But I hope Rummy and Deadeye Dick didn't have plans to vacation in Europe after they leave office.
From EU May Question Cheney, Rumsfeld CBS News/AP 01/26/06
A European Parliament investigation into alleged CIA secret prisons could ask Vice President Dick Cheney and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld to testify, although it has no legal power to subpoena them, a member of the panel said Thursday.
"Very senior people" would be asked to answer the allegations of human rights violations on EU territory, said Sarah Ludford, vice president of an investigation into the alleged prisons being conducted by the parliament.
"I don't see why we should not invite Donald Rumsfeld and Dick Cheney," Ludford said. "I'm sure they would be very welcome and they would be heard with great interest, or (Secretary of State) Condoleezza Rice perhaps, why not?"
If Deadeye Dick asks them to come interview him at the hunting lodge, though, they might want to wear special protective clothing.
