| Bush Likely to Prevent Aides’ Testimony | | 2007-08-01 19:51:57 | |
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Bush is expected to claim executive privilege to prevent two more White House aides from testifying before Congress about the firings of federal prosecutors.
Thursday is the deadline for Karl Rove, Bush’s top political adviser, to provide testimony and documents related to the firings, under a subpoena from the Senate Judiciary Committee. Also subpoenaed was White House political aide J. Scott Jennings. The Justice Department included both men on e-mails about the firings and the administration’s response to the congressional investigation.
White House Counsel Fred Fielding has consistently said that top presidential aides - present and past - are immune from subpoenas and has declared the documents sought off-limits under executive privilege.
The House Judiciary Committee already has approved a contempt citation against two other Bush confidants, chief of staff Josh Bolten and former White House counsel Harriet Miers. The full House is expected | | By: TexasFred's | | |

| My testimony | | 2007-05-25 00:03:00 | | No Christian website is complete without a testimony. In particular, when it comes to an apologetics website such as this one, many people probably wonder about the site owner's background. So why did it take me eight years to put one up? No idea. I just happened across an article on the subject on rationalchristianity.net today, which I had actually read before, and decided to get to it.
