- PoizonFrog, on 01/27/2009, -11/+134Time to look forward, not backward, according to Obama.
I look forward to seeing the Bush administration tried and convicted of their many crimes against humanity, and America. - SheilaNoya, on 01/27/2009, -8/+100There's a lot of damning evidence against Rove in the Siegelman case. Let's hope they finally hold Rove accountable for some of the nasty crap he pulled to get a Democratic Governor thrown in jail (on trumped up charges) right before an election.
Rove doesn't have Bush's hencemen in the Justice Department to protect him this time. I hope they fry this lying scumbag. - Harboggles, on 01/27/2009, -8/+68LETS NOT ***** THIS UP OKAY!?!?!??!?!
- dreamtiger, on 01/27/2009, -10/+57Porky Rove is gonna get grilled. I smell pork chops on the BBQ.
- maikrosaft, on 01/27/2009, -9/+52Bye bye executive privilege, hello justice!
- Lomstradamus, on 01/27/2009, -6/+41JAIL THAT ***** FOR LIFE!!!
- alittlebrookie, on 01/27/2009, -4/+33Deja vu ? Didn't he flip off Conyers and the judiciary committee once before?
- supermanKD, on 01/27/2009, -6/+34***** Karl Rove
- principle, on 01/27/2009, -8/+32“Change has come to Washington, and I hope Karl Rove is ready for it.” I personally don’t care if he brings Vaseline or not. I want to see this pig squeal.
- sarahlee, on 01/27/2009, -8/+32Hoping that we have an Attorney General by Feb. 2.
- lolmax, on 01/27/2009, -2/+25Hasn't he already been subpoenaed by a few other people? What happened to that?
- CommonSense2k8, on 01/27/2009, -0/+17............
guess the sarcasm wasn't cleary enough.... - mikelieman, on 01/27/2009, -2/+18Who's going to pardon him now?
- bioncinola, on 01/27/2009, -3/+19guys guys... this isn't anything excitng.
i don't think the House Judiciary Chariman has the power to order that Rove be prosecuted. he can only ask annoying questions because he is a memebr of the Legislature.
What we need is for the Attorney General and head of the Executive body in charge of proseucitions for crimes to actually charge Rove with crimes and announce a prosecution.
So nothing to crow about at all. - inactive, on 01/27/2009, -0/+16You forgot also twirling, always twirling toward freedom
- Elranzer, on 01/27/2009, -1/+14Didn't he just flee the country last time he was subpoenaed?
- kenism, on 01/27/2009, -3/+16Don't speak to me about living in the past, tell that to Karl Rove. Took a while, after Rupert Murdoch bought the WSJ, Karl Rove now have articles published (as opinion pieces) on the WSJ. (wont be renewing my WSJ sub anytime soon)

Title: "Bush Was Right When It Mattered Most " - JANUARY 22, 2009 regarding Iraq
I'm sorry Rove but we will not squander billions (or trillions) just so you can be "right."

Title: "McCain Couldn't Compete With Obama's Money" DECEMBER 3, 2008 regarding the campaign
No Karl, McCain lost because Obama is a Harvard graduate vs McCain being dead last in his navy class.
If you commit the crime, gotta do the time. Only then can we move on. Ignoring the crime will mean others can repeat it without repercussion. - Cglass, on 01/27/2009, -0/+12Actually not being held accountable for your actions is THE real crime, and one that led up to the majority of problems we face today :D
- inactive, on 01/27/2009, -1/+13Yes, kinda like STFU America, I own you idiots, all of you!
- lordmike, on 01/27/2009, -1/+13Rove will either not show up, which is contempt... or show up and lie, which is perjury... so he can get nailed on either of those... regardless, he's going to have to spend a lot of money on lawyers, which is very, very nice...
- AndySavage, on 01/27/2009, -3/+15Arrest him.
- mark925, on 01/27/2009, -4/+16He was subpoenaed but refused to testify. Of course that was when Bush was still in the White House. Now things are different. Obama's administration is going to put the smackdown on his good for nothing ass.
- Gemfinder, on 01/27/2009, -6/+18[rapidfire air-punch] YESYESYESYES!!
- inactive, on 01/27/2009, -1/+12Justice will taste delicious
- nihilville, on 01/27/2009, -1/+11With a side of freedom fries!
The pork grease makes them extra libertacious!
/snark - mikelieman, on 01/27/2009, -7/+16PRESIDENT Obama didn't mention the allegations of Bush's, Cheney's, Rice's, Rumsfeld's, Powell's et. al. violation of 18 USC 1001 and 18 USC 371.
Briefly, ask yourself this:
"Is there probable cause to believe that [they] used deceit, craft, trickery, dishonest means -- including lies, false pretenses, misrepresentations, deliberate omissions, half-truths, false promises, and statements made with reckless indifference to their truth -- to obstruct, impede, or interfere with Congress' lawful government function of overseeing foreign affairs, relating to the invasion of Iraq?"
If the answer to that is 'Yes', then we got ourselves a Felony Indictment.
Which ISN'T a grave breach of the president's authority. It's the act of a piece-of-***** felon. - nihilville, on 01/27/2009, -5/+14About flippin' time.
- emjaymj, on 01/27/2009, -1/+10"Great, the economy is hanging on by a fingernail above a cliff, and congress is going to spend time on a witch hunt for somebody that is no longer in power."
This is the kind of thinking that gives these people the ability to ***** on the public day in and day out. Politicians HAVE to learn that they are accountable for their actions - giving somebody a free pass just because the administration in power at the time refused to do anything about it (hell, they were a part of it) is only going to let the cycle continue. - Dustin00, on 01/27/2009, -7/+16*****. Yeah.
- withoutteeth, on 01/27/2009, -2/+10"The subpoena delegates authority to US marshals to enforce, like any Congressional subpoena, and was copied to Rove's Washington, D.C. attorney."
So Karl Rove will actually have to show up to this hearing. It will be interesting to watch, but nothing significant is going to happen. Rove will either give vague answers or make an ass of himself, or both. But he will walk. Neither Republicans nor the majority of congressional democrats want to see Bush and Co. convicted of war crimes because that would bring true accountability to the federal government. - JenniferInMO, on 01/27/2009, -2/+10lol. That was a great picture in my mind's eye!
- DD2CC2U, on 01/27/2009, -4/+12What really went on in the Bush Administration? So many secrets so much money lost into thin air.
- inactive, on 01/27/2009, -2/+10I hope he does it this time and stay OUT of the country.
- nihilville, on 01/27/2009, -5/+12Why the hell not?
They're not above the law. - blacklilyninja, on 01/27/2009, -6/+12its a beginning
- frazw, on 01/27/2009, -0/+6I thought the sarcasm was clear as a bell!
- JKap, on 01/27/2009, -2/+8LOL. What about the 935+ lies used by the Bush-Cheney cabal to frame-up and engineer "war" and occupation of Iraq? No "breach" of the president's authority there in your infinite wisdom? I didn't know the "president" could lie with impunity according to his constitutional authority (which is to enforce the laws passed by the legislature and not to break them), especially when there are laws on the books that prohibit public officials from knowingly making false statements.

On the end of a rope. - flammablewater, on 01/27/2009, -1/+6perfect
- johnhummel, on 01/27/2009, -0/+5@CommonSense: The /sarcasm tag is your friend. Trust me - never snark without it.
- enantiodromia, on 01/27/2009, -0/+4the issues you listed are not the "real problems".
the real problems are "how did we let these people do this to our country" and "how do we prevent it from happening again".
your theory of "we should just let criminals get away with it if it takes too much time to prosecute them" is funny. i thought you people were supposed to be tough on crime and super patriotic. maybe that only applies when the criminal is a poor minority and country is weakened by the Left.
To sum up, you think as long as the criminal is a rich white Washington insider, and the threat to the country comes from the GOP, it's fine. - enantiodromia, on 01/27/2009, -1/+5i agree. he should ignore it again.
it will make the arrest footage on CNN that much more entertaining. - flammablewater, on 01/27/2009, -1/+5If bush ever shows up in several countries, I know one of which is Germany, he will immediately be arrested and charged with war crimes.
- GovernmentSp00k, on 01/28/2009, -0/+3http://z.about.com/d/politicalhumor/1/0/w/d/rove_a ...
- MorganMghee, on 01/28/2009, -1/+4$100,000 reward for information about Rove and election manipulation.http://digg.com/politics/Non_profit_offers_100k_fo ...
- Anomaly100, on 01/27/2009, -0/+3Remember that infamous Nixon line, "If the President does it, it's not illegal...". Some folks don't know they aren't above the law. Amazing, huh?
- SheilaNoya, on 01/27/2009, -1/+4We heard people saying the same thing when Abramoff was being investigated.
Once Abramoff started singing, it ended with several Republican politicians going to prison. - compu73rg33k, on 01/28/2009, -0/+3Who pardoned him last time?
- bioncinola, on 01/27/2009, -1/+3Exactly. America's police and prosecution services really have to get serious and prosecute immediately, without this silly rigmarole of calling Rove up before a "committee".
Do any other citizens (eg: pickpockets, bank robbers) get called up before a congressional committee when they are suspecte of commiting a crime? No, they get charged with the crime and go straight to trial.
This congrassional committee isrealy useless. - tt112, on 01/27/2009, -0/+2http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fc_9oznsIvU
