U.S. lawmakers vote to hold Bolten and Rove in contempt


WASHINGTON (Reuters) -

The U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee voted on Thursday to hold two top
aides to President George W. Bush in contempt of Congress for refusing
to cooperate in its probe of fired federal prosecutors.

On a largely party-line vote of 11-7, the Democratic-led panel sent
contempt citations against White House Chief of Staff Josh Bolten and
former Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove to the full Senate for
consideration
