#1 a move that could shed light on internal dissension over the legal status of the secret program.

This is an intriguing development. Especially in light of Senator Rockefellers rather odd closing statement when AG Gonzales testified in open session before The Senate Intelligence Committee. Rocky opined that he had suspicion that the NSA leak to the press came from the DOJ. (Admittedly without any proof) This prompted FBI Director Mueller to deliver an obligatory terse reply. He delivered his statement with his traditional stoic demeanor but you had to know his sphincter was constricting tight enough to crush a peach-pit. Then again it may be nothing now that Rockefeller has found a new flair for the melo-dramatic. (ala Iraq Phase II closed-door session on the Senate floor)
