Bush chief of staff could be cited

[cal04]

The chairman of the House Judiciary Committee warned the White House on Thursday that chief of staff Josh Bolten could face a contempt citation if he does not immediately comply with a subpoena for documents related to the firings of U.S. attorneys.

In a letter to White House counsel Fred Fielding, Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., gave Bolten until Monday to announce whether he will comply.

The Bush administration has declared that any documents between White House officials regarding the firings are protected by executive privilege, to preserve the flow of candid advice the president receives.

A subcommittee of Conyers' panel ruled earlier Thursday that the privilege claim in Bolten's case is out of order.
