White House Press Briefing by Dana Perino 4/23/07 (Alberto Gonzales)
— Tuesday, April 24, 2007 — John, go ahead. Q Thank you, Dana. Turning back to the Department of Justice, Congressman Tom Davis, and the Republican members of the House Government Operations Committee, recently wrote the Attorney General asking why former National Security Council advisor Sandy Berger had not been administered a polygraph test about what he took from the National Archives and looked at there -- something Mr. Berger agreed to in his plea bargain agreement two years ago. The Department of Justice wrote back a terse letter, said there was no need to give him a polygraph test. Mr. Davis has publicly complained about his treatment. My question is, the last time I checked, the Attorney General works for the President, reports to him. Is the President aware of this? And would he ask his Attorney General to make this test possible? MS. PERINO: I don't know if the President is aware of it. I do know that it would be inappropriate for the President to get himself involved into an investigation. Q So he has no opinion -- you have no opinion on -- MS. PERINO: I have not talked to the President about it, John. Q All right. Will you? MS. PERINO: I'll see if I can do that.
