A Bit of Spine
Two Republicans (Specter/Grassley) actually showed a bit of principle by voting to approve contempt resolutions against Karl Rove and White House chief of staff Josh Bolten for failing to comply with subpoenas from the U.S. Attorney firings probe. Time for the matter to go to the full Senate (and House as to Miers and Bolten). The fact this, which the betting person would suggest is likely to amount to not much, is notable is sad. OTOH, h/t Glenn Greenwald, the House did give Christians their props. Mitt Romney should be happy.
