26. Q: Did Bush ORDER anyone else not to testify? Or just Miers?
Edited on Fri Jul-13-07 10:03 AM by blondeatlast
I bring this up not to suggest conspiracy (I think it smacks of it, but that's not what I'm getting at).

Instead, I see something else--a semi=brilliant PR move. Suppose the contempt is issued and Miers is compelled to testify or go to jail. I see her as a very, very useful idiot for George. She idolizes him and seemingly would do anything for him (witness her non-appearance).

Not only that, she's an older woman and if she's areested, George, Inc. will get tons of PR off of playing that nice old lady (who's really a tough old RRR wingnut, but the public doesn't know that) against that big, overbearing mean Congress.

This is getting crucial and it appears that the WH has it all planned out. am I getting too tin-hattish (the tin messes with my dye, so I try to avoid it).
