Bush Says Rove and Miers Can Testify in Attorney Firing Hearings

-

White House Counsel Fred Fielding has just released a letter (pdf here) to Senators Leahy and Specter, and Congresspersons Conyers, Smith and Sanchez.
In it, he writes:

In response to the invitations extended by the Committees, I am prepared to agree to make available for interviews the President’s former Counsel; current Deputy Chief of Staff and Senior Advisor; Deputy Counsel; and a Special Assistant to the Office of Political Affairs.

Pat Leahy has the White House squirming.
— Steve Clemons
Update: It is unclear whether Rove and Miers “interviews” would be allowed by White House Counsel Fred Fielding to be given under oath.
