Former White House counsel Harriet Miers is still taking orders from the Prez, and skipped a heariing before a House panel today about the federal prosecutor firings. The panel voted 7-5 that Bush's executive privilege claim that his former advisers can't be summoned before Congress is "out of order". Next would be to say that Miers is "in contempt of Congress", but that would have to be voted on by the full house. This thing may yet end up in court, but as with just about everything else in this administration (the war, Scooter Libby, the firings, who knows what all else), I can't help but feel that this all can't end soon enough.
