contempt

I believe Congress has right on its side in initiating contempt charges against Harriet Miers for refusing to appear before the Senate on Thursday to discuss the Great US Attorney Massacre.

But I wonder what the outcome of a court case on this could be? Worst case scenario: it reaches the Supreme Court which backs the de facto Bush Administration and we end up with their absurdly far-reaching claims of executive privilege and immunity gaining judicial approval, strengthening the imperial presidency further.
