Judge, jury and no need for the executioner

Are we approaching a constitutional crisis as US Attorney General Michael Mukasey decides, without the aid of a grand jury or an investigation, that White House Chief of Staff Josh Bolten and former presidential counsel Harriet Miers are not in contempt of Congress for refusing to appear before the House Judiciary Committee. House Speaker Pelosi has ordered the Committee to commence a lawsuit.

It may get interesting.
