Patrick Leahy actually said...

"I think the next nominee for a Justice Department confirmation position that comes up here ought to be told, 'I am sorry. Your confirmation is not going to go through until you turn over the OLC memos..."

"The Justice Department is trying to gut that out."

"We really wanted it to work, and we wanted it to work whether we were in the Senate or not."

"We would like to see the list of all the OLC memoranda that are in force."
