Who puts the committee members under oath??  Or at least promise to act 
civilized?

I suppose that the Capitol Police would step in, but as far as I know we
haven't had such problems since before the civil war.  With respect to
this particular witness I think it would be poetic for the committee to
"not torture" him into giving meaningful answers, using the definition
of "not torture" provided by the witness himself, but I don't think
we'll see anything that much fun.

That would indeed be a delightful irony.

Re resp:394: Sen. Spector, the chair of the committee, argued that 
lying to Congress is already a crime, so putting the witness under oath 
was not necessary.  Funny, no one ever argued that when Attorney 
General Reno was being questioned, or even when baseball players were 
being questioned about steroid use. 
 
Another interesting moment came when a Senator (I forget which one -- I 
was listening in the car) asked the Attorney General about dissenting 
views inside the administration that had come to light about the NSA 
spying program.  The Attorney General said that he thought those 
dissenting views weren't about the NSA program, but about "other 
operations."  That suggests to me that the NSA domestic spying that 
we've heard about is only the tip of the iceburg.
