contempt for rove and bolten

Judiciary Committee approves contempt resolutions.

In a 12-7 vote this morning, the Senate Judiciary Committee approved contempt resolutions against Karl Rove and White House Chief of Staff Joshua Bolten for their refusal to comply with the U.S. attorney investigation. Bush, citing executive privilege, has “refused to allow Rove and Bolten to testify or turn over documents to the panel.” Republican Sens. Arlen Specter (R-PA) and Chuck Grassley (R-IA) both supported the resolutions.
