Karl Rove held in contempt by House Judiciary Committee

you guy are so gullible, so 20 democrats have contempt for karl rove--what they really trying to cover up is their own ineptitude.
karl rove does not tell the A.G who to prosecute it is a lame made up charge with nothing to back it up.
And you guys are calling for justice, for what? Gore and Kerry losing the elections? ur idea of justice is trying to get at the administration by leveling phony charges against its advisors by their political opponents.In what fairytale world is that justice? easy on the koolaid

rove is held in contempt by a bunch of republican hating democrats trying to get their party in power??
Shocking Indeed.........NOT

When People that bush helped get some kind of power in our government act like this to the law it makes me question if they all believe that their above the law

stupid article. nothing was done illegal according to our laws. what was done has been done by every administration for 50 years. If your Rep you hire Rep. and fire dems. If your Dem you hire dems and fire Reps.

Geez. THey need to get over this stupid crap and get us some cheap gas. And stop taking 5 week vacations and get their butts to work

Bet they drove a car or took a plane home too. Bet they didn't ride a bicycle like they want us to do.

Politicians are such liars...like Jekyl and Hyde.

when I don't show up for court I have a warrent for my arrest, a fine, and a less than healthy chance of getting out of jail when I go to court. please throw his ass in jail

I believe this is the person that Bush enjoyed using his cigar with in the Oval Office.Talk about I'll do anything for you...Damn famous for something..not Where's Kenneth Star when you really need him?Hmmmm...Probably Legal counsel for Exxon!

They voted along party lines. Jesus. What kind of crime would he have to commit so that Republicans wouldn't vote along party lines? Probably a blow job.

They are all trying to protect their own asses. When a man can commit treason, throw elections and politicize our justice system and Republicans in congress choose to overlook it is a travesty. What has happened to the United States of America?

When an American citizen is held in contempt of court, doesn't that warrant jail time?

Could you imagine if you didn't do what the court asked of you. I'm pretty sure the police wouldn't come to your aid!!!

Slime, pure slime.

Jeez. Look at his smug face.

I have personally held Karl Rove and the entire Bush administration in contempt for years. Finally, our Congress has followed suit (legally speaking). The world served as witness as George W. Bush led the U.S. into an unwarranted war in Iraq. Just a reminder for anyone who still doesn't get it - Iraq had NOTHING to do with the terror attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. Sure, Saddam was a tyrant, but by what right did the U.S. invade a sovereign nation, hunt down, put on trial, and then execute a head of state. How many other tyrants and bloodthirsty rulers did Bush allow to continue their bloodthirsty ways? Genocide in Rwanda drew yawns from this administration. Now, the world watches as recently-captured former Bosnian Serb leader Radovan Karadzic stands before the War Crimes Tribunal at The Hague. Why is it so hard to imagine Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Rove, Rice, et al standing before a War Crimes Tribunal at The Hague? Why do Americans assume immunity for our leaders? They are not untouchable.

God, just look at that pigs face. Where the hell did his chin go?

Jail please.

it's only a recommendation they are only rattling your chains to see if anyone is awake.

What a totally useless example of representative government. What kind of countries have governments this timid? Mostly tin horn dictatorships I was always taught.

Is Turdblossom still out of the country?

Doesn't really matter how the House votes, our wonderful AG won't enforce the contempt charges.

sign a petition allowing a final vote here!!!www.thepetitionsite.com/petition/493951391

We all gave in after nine eleven. I mean who wants to be the hater? Rove is the guy who got revenge on snotty wasps by getting more power. He's rick james bitch.. We let it happen. What can we do in a country that prides itself on ignoring others and selfishness. Rove did what he was allowed. Fuck Pelosi she is the first woman speaker and she would rather keep her position than stand up for what is right. Time for every one to wake up and see that politicians will only go sofar as voting for the lesser of two evils. its the best they can do given the system. When is Gore going to grow a pair and get back into a leadership position. Yea you Al. The guy who gave his presidency to the courts over the people. When are you going to fix your mistake? When are you going to take what was really yours? Stop being a puss and take the wheel. Time to push the button or let mental fucks who abuse power under the name of Jesus take over. Al you do not belong behind the scenes.

Nancy Pelosi can't fool me, she's jr dubs call girl.
Rove, what about Gonzales, or Dick, or Dick head
these people will never be brought to justice until you write Nancy herself...District Office - 450 Golden Gate Ave. - 14th Floor - San Francisco, CA 94102 - (415) 556-4862 -
Washington, D.C. Office - 235 Cannon HOB - Washington, DC 20515 - (202) 225-4965 - or do nothing and watch nothing happen!!!

I'm curious to see if it comes to a vote in September, and I hope it does.
It is disturbing that Karl has been able to play the role of wicked puppet-master in America politics for this long.

I want to know if Nancy Pelosi is going to reach up her skirt and grab her nuts and take some action finally. I'm hoping her inaction is all part of some secret plan to bop the Man in the end.

and what about bush and cheney

Rove has proven himself to be just another four letter word that stinks, like the rest of this administration...it's time to clean up our government... Stinky is a good place to start shoveling out the...pewwweeee...the 'big house' has become the pighouse...now off with them to the jail house...one by one or all together, it doesn't matter...we all need some fresh air...

Rove = slimy low down nasty

Well its good the be the king.

This whole administration is F-up I just wonder as a Nation will we let them walk out of the White House and pretent like nothing happened? Me personally I think this whole administration should be under a big investigation and be charged with multiple counts of War Crimes and investigate the mysterious rise is high gas prices. We as a Nation need to get together and make an example of this people and really practice our rights as a Democracy.

We shall know things are getting better in this country when all the criminals in the current administration start being called before justice.

Please people. Get a life. Justice will happen. No need to get all worked up. And drag our country down in the process. (shakes her head)

End lobbying; end Political Action Committees; implement campaign finance reform; and limit terms. It's not rocket science, people.

Oh, and stop voting for elephants ... they stink.

It isnt going anywhere as long as Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reed are holding the reins. How or why did the people ever send Nancy Pelosi to represent them? Did it ever occur to the populace that all and I repeat all politicians are supposed to be public servants. However the Old dictionary defines politicians as: "One who is interested in personal or partisan gain and other selfish interest." based on this definition, serving the public is not in thje interest of politics. Also since they have all been quite busy altering the constitution to fit their agenda, I can see that since Congress and The Senate are merely selfserving, I would suggest we fire all of them all and and install one man selected from all of America to rule over congress and one man in the Senate to represent the people. The Common people can control one person but 500 plus all of the other featherbedders are not so easy. A dictatorship is not a bad word but when you get then thousand politicians who have convinced the public that they are needed for checks and balances. bah One intelligent politician for leading this country is all that is needed. All others are common employees. Checks and balances are a farce.

How can anything be "evil" along party lines? The partisan nonsense blurring the truth to the point that one can't even make a rational assessment of things is what is driving me nuts.

Bush sure as hell wasn't looking too chipper today.

It's about goddamned time. If they actually follow through with any action, however, I will be delightfully surprised.

He will never have to do anything, come on people, these guys are above the law, they proove that to us everyday.

We are all pushing for change, riding on a crest of time, that is our destiny.
What, can't you hear your spirit SCREAMING for you to listen?

*Shakes magic 8 ball.....

Signs point to,"We all pull together or die."

Also, "F*** this guy."

Karl Rove held in contempt by the world...

set his ass on fire

Yeah, big deal, so was Janet Reno in August 1998.

Given the actions and concern for the American people exhibited since the Pelosi coronation many people have contempt for Congress.

Well according to Bush only he has the authority because he's "The Decider"

According to Cheney no one has authority over him because he's his own branch of goverment that's untouchable.

Who does have the authority then?

At LEAST take away his passport so he can't flee the country. At this point, it's up to the Justice Department to prosecute all these no-show contemptible people (Bolten, Miers, Rove), and they've indicated they won't be doing so. All the more reason to get a Democratic administration in there, who WILL prosecute.

I hope all those people who voted for Bush twice feel pretty stupid right now. I knew this administration would take us down the toilet, but most Americans thought good-Texas-cowboy values were in order. Look what that has gotten us: greed, corruption and outrageous debt. Republican policies don't work because they favor the rich. Why can't people see that?

As with any rotten onion, one must peal away each layer to get to the blackened core.

Libby had his sentence commuted, he was not (yet) pardoned.

Accepting a pardon assumes an admission of guilt and exempts the accused from prosecution. A pardon acts like a grant of immunity in that in the absence of penalty, the fifth amendment no longer applies and one can be compelled to offer testimony.

Bush is not about to pardon any of his cronies anytime soon.

Unless he gets a pardon like Scooter Libby did

there is simply no distinction between the man's face and his neck

"one by one they go down...."

Exactly. I remember watching the Watergate hearings. It was a rich tapestry of wrongdoing that unraveled one thread at a time until the rats began to turn on one another.

one by one they go down....from what I have been researching tho, the real evil doer is cheney

Send Karl Rove to jail:

It's funny when people bring up the "well so and so did it" defense...the fact of the matter is, they broke the law and we are in the here and now. Given the weight of the Bush administration corruption that increases on a daily basis now...that argument doesn't even hold spit. They need to be accountable like everyone else.

Next time I get pulled over for speeding, I'm going to claim executive privilege. I'll let you know how that works out.

well i called both numbers and never got an answer.. i wasn't surprised .. I hope they all rot in prison

It would be so nice to see someone who was involved with this administration held accountable for their actions!

.

Just throw Karl Rove in jail. But don't stop there...

Nancy Pelosi won't do shit. She's just another sheep of this "wonderful" administration that we have.

Finally the tide of Justice may be at a turning-point. We need our country to be about Justice again.

It must feel good to be above the law.

It is about time. I say go for 'inherent contempt' and get the whole house into this. Make it an election issue. If members are too partisan to at least contemplate contempt for anybody who so blatantly uses executive privilege when there is none, then why should they not get hit for it?

Turns out the police in Iowa should not have interfered with the citizens arrest of Rove at a country club fundraiser. He could already be in custody awaiting extradition like the common criminal he is.
These are Pelosi's #'s , give her a call.
(202) 225-0100
(202) 225-4965

Seems she will only respond when the voters are outraged. So get outraged and change her mind.

I wonder if Rove is the only "evil" one?
