House Republicans Walk Out

John Boehner just led the Republican caucus out of the House of Representatives rather than allow them to vote on contempt charges against Harriet Miers and Josh Bolten.

Update [2008-2-14 14:25:22 by BooMan]: The House of Representatives has officially found Bush’s chief of staff Josh Bolten and former legal adviser and Supreme Court nominee Harriet Miers to be in Contempt of Congress. The vote was 223-32. I’ll get a Roll Call as soon as they post it.
