But given your answer above, why are people and Congress surprised about the Administration putting up a fight against the subpoena?

I doubt very much they are suprised at this point....though we all may be quite dissapointed. The point I think being made here is that they are guilty of criminal activity, and they represent the highest possible level of government, they represent US. Our congress is attempting to prove the illegality in hopes it may prevent further degradation of our national character, and perhaps hold a few bastards accountable for corrupting what was once a well respected institution.
I personally did not expect much in the way of a successful investigation, nor do I forsee impeachment ahead. I am relatively impressed that they are trying though....and will even admit to some satisfaction that the administration is forced to be so blatant in its disregard for Law. One can only wonder what this mess would be like if the DOJ wasn't in the presidents pocket.
On another front
ACE....you seem to at least be accepting that Bush and Co. have committed illegal acts, I consider that progress.
