House contempt vote

Yesterday's vote by the House of Representatives holding Bush administration officials Josh Bolten and Harriet Miers in contempt of Congress was meant to stick a finger in the eye of President Bush, nothing more. Nothing will come of it. The Justice Department will not act on the contempt charge. Congressional Democrats can take it to court but their chances there are slim and none. The vote was a waste of time and it was petty. Where were the adults among Congressional Democrats, if any?
