Let me get this straight...if Rove/Miers refuse to testify before Congress under oath they can be found in contempt of Congress. And then, the US Attorney from DC can choose to pursue the matter (or not)
Problem: that USA is a GONZALES APPOINTEE.
"Jeffrey A. Taylor was appointed interim U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia by Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales on September 22, 2006. He was sworn in and took office on September 29, 2006.
From 2002 to 2006, Mr. Taylor served as Counselor to Attorney Generals John Ashcroft and Gonzales, where he handled a broad array of matters, including oversight of the Department’s national security, terrorism, and criminal litigation and policy, as well as the operations of the Department’s law enforcement components."
