House passes contempt citations against Bush aides - AG will not enforce????

In an article from RawStory - House passes contempt citations for Bush aides, we are reminded that Attorney General Michael Mukasey recently told Congress he would not prosecute the contempt charges because Bolten and Miers were following Bush's order that they not appear.

1) "Following orders" got soldiers executed after WWII - why the double standard????

2) Since when is the AG allowed to be in contempt of Congress?

When will they be held accountable???

"...Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed..."
