Some smart blogger should make available "Contempt Citations" for ordinary citizens to issue to deserving elected, judicial and bureaucratic figures. If I were a government official or employee, nothing would give me a bigger smile than having a nice clean contempt citation from Congress to frame and hang on my bathroom wall. From the linked story:WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Senate Judiciary Committee voted on Thursday to hold two men who have been top aides to President George W. Bush in contempt for refusing to comply with subpoenas in its probe of the firing of federal prosecutors.
On a largely party-line vote, the Democratic-led panel sent contempt of Congress citations against White House Chief of Staff Josh Bolten and former Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove to the full Senate for consideration.
