Two former White House officials will face subpoenas for their involvement in the firing of 8 US Attorneys earlier this year, as Michael Roston reported for RAW STORY Wednesday.

House Judiciary Committee investigators issued a subpoena for Harriet Miers, former White House Counsel and one-time Bush Supreme Court nominee, and the Senate issued one for Sara Taylor, a former top aide to Karl Rove. Both committees also sought a variety of documents from the White House.

In a column slated for Sunday’s New York Times, Sheryl Gay Stolberg notes that “President Bush was strangely quiet last week,” even though he “had been quite vocal, and perfectly clear, back in March when Democrats first delivered their subpoena threat.”
