As the whole US Attorney thing continues to swirl and bubble, Greg Palast has unearthed some interesting stuff on Ms. Miers.
Excerpt: But this is not the first time that Miers has fired investigators to protect Mr. Bush.

In 1999, while investigating Governor George Bush of Texas for the Guardian papers of Britain, I obtained an extraordinary, and extraordinarily confidential, memo to the US Attorney’s office in Austin. It disclosed that, in 1997, Governor Bush secretly suggested to the chairwoman of the Texas Lottery Commission that she grant a contract to the client of a Bush ally.
Read the whole thing. It's fascinating how deep the rabbit hole goes.
