Democratic Leaders Delay Contempt Again

"Just two weeks ago, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi seemed prepared to bring the contempt citations against White House Chief of Staff Josh Bolten and former White House counsel Harriet Miers to the House floor for a vote when Congress came back from their winter break this week. The contempt citations were issued in July 2007, when Bolten and Miers refused to cooperate with the Congressional investigation into the potentially criminal firing of nine US attorneys by the Bush administration. Initially, Pelosi signaled her support for the citation of contempt, but has repeatedly delayed a vote on the matter." Well, she already got the press for looking as if she was doing something, mission accomplished. The attention span of the Sheeple is too short for them too realize that nothing was really done. Standard operating procedure for these politicians.
