Is Harriet Miers scared she might perjure herself, is why she refuses to testify under oath? DISCRIMINATION!

Yeah, it just does not wash.  What is she afraid of?  What skeletons
are in HER closet?  And Karl Rove does not want to testify under oath
either.

Wow!  I thought the Bush administration was so big on everything being
on the up and up....  Let's see....Gonzales is in trouble because of
firing those 8 prosecutors for political reasons.  Bush said he does
not agree with the way that Gonzales did it, but that he agrees that
the President should be able to fire prosecutors as the EWOC sees
fit.  And then there is the little 'thingy' (thanks for the word
former Pres George HW Bush) facing the FBI just now because of the
wiretap situation.  It seems that their aim was too broad, and that
they ended up getting records from the phone companies that they had
NO reason getting.  And the phone companies just rolled over for
them.  Makes me wonder if Dick Cheney has stock in his 'blind trust'
in those companies, as well as that Halliburton stock that is still
delivering strong for "Uncle Dick".  I guess it IS true that Uncle
Dick is the dog what wags the tail known as EWOC Bush!

Umm, if they were afraid of perjury, they could just lie!

It's a longstanding tradition for when executive branch officials 
testify about something within the domain of the executive branch.  The 
same thing happened under Clinton.
