Paul M. Thompson was quoted in an October 17 article published by Roll Call regarding attorney general nominee Michael Mukasey's confirmation hearings over whether he would enforce contempt of Congress citations that could still be issued in the U.S. attorneys investigation. As a former Republican Judiciary Committee counsel, Mr. Thompson commented on the hearing regarding the extent to which Congress will assert itself over the executive branch. "The question will be for certain members of the Judiciary Committee whether they won their political victory when Attorney General Gonzales resigned and whether they feel pursuing this has some political value to them," Mr. Thompson said.
