Poor Conyers. Don't he know rules apply only to little people. And they aren't gonna apply to Rove.

Speaking of Rules applying only to the little folks, what's the deal about not seating the delegates from Michigan and Florida!?!

The rules are clearly inconvenient at this point. And this wrong must be righted by changing the rules.

They absolutley need to seat these two states, but how is the questions. Should their be no penalties? if so, does that mean the states can now choose their own voting date...I don't have an answer.

If by witch you mean criminal...yeah then it is a witch hunt.

Are you seriously defending the architect who gave us with Bush, Cheney Rummy and the Committee for Liberation of Iraq...the war, and all the crap they are leaving with...

I am sure historically this is only the first of the crimes to be uncovered.

He should think of this as a warm up.

The answer is the rules must be followed. BOTH campaigns agreed to them from the start. If the rules are tossed at this point, why have rules?

Since Karl Rove openly discusses issues on public airways I really want someone to tell me how Executive Privilege will stand the test against a Congressional suppoena?

Witch Hunt? You gotta be kidding. That is all the Bush administration has done for the past eight years - if not worse, and Karl Rove was right in the middle of it. He is a big boy, so don't worry Joaquin, he can afford the best attorneys to defend him.

If executive priviledge applies, I'd be surprised. Maybe we could talk to the state trooper who gave George W. his first DUI unless he is also covered by E/P.
Further, illegal acts have no priviledge.

Cool lets hope Rove and Bush do get away with murder. This is a small issue compared to all of the feloneys Bill and Hillary committed. Now we have a x crack user running for president. Thank you Soros and Moore for financing him because if you 2 had not Hillary might just have won! Lets hope Bush pardons our boy Rove in the end if it gets to the end of the presidency.

Once the Bush Administration has left the White House, there will be no more specious and spurious claims to executive privilege to cover his lackies! Let it rain, let it rain. It's about time that justice is served.

Dano - When rule become inconvenient they must be changed. Everyone knows this.

The promise given was a necessity of the past: the word broken is a necessity of the present.

HIllary won the vote in two states (MI – FL) that are prohibited from allocating delegates to the nomination convention. As Long as Hillary won these states it does not matter that the candidates did not campaign there or if Obama’s name was even on the ballot. The Voters cannot be disenfranchised by their party, especially the Florida voters who were disenfranchised in 2000. Obviously, these inconvenient rules must be changed and these delegates must be seated.

Rules apply to little people. They do not apply to Rove and they don't apply to Hillary.

I wonder what will happen after November when in all likelihood congress and the executive branch will be controlled by Democrats. I would hope that investigations from the VPs energy commission to the bungling of the war (in all of it manifestations) would be undertook. But I fear that Dems would shy away from this course for fear of looking partisan. The facts are the facts and if high crimes and misdemeanors were perpetrated then they need to be brought to the light of day. If this costs the Dems some of their political capital then so be it. WE THE PEOPLE need to know exactly what went on in this administration and who knew about it.

He's an over-rated operative. Unfortunately, half of America believed the "terrorist hype." That's fine. November will be different!

Gonzales fires 8 US attorneys? Funny, when Clinton first came into office, he and Janet Reno fired 93 U.S. attorneys. Funny how nobody was outraged then. In fact, in the case of the investigation into the Whitewater deal, Clinton fired the Little Rock U.S. attorney. They replaced that U.S. attorney with a former law student of Mr. Clinton's. And, yet, they're trying to make hay on what the Bush administration did???

That is all this do nothing congress is good for..

MDB - I think others more qualified will comment on your remarks. When Clinton replaced the attorneys that is the perrogative of any newly elected President and it wasn't the first time. Bush didn't do it, but when attorneys didn't tow the mark Gonzales fired them not on something of merit, but in political retribution during service when they followed the law against the wishes on a political agenda - big difference I think.

I'm glad Congress is addressing our real issues. Because political posturing is so important to me. It really makes a real difference to the little guy. All this political posturing.

Yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Subponaed by the most ethical congress EVAH!

Yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

I would love to see Bushie's little toadie Rove twist slowly in the wind. Better yet, let him rot in prison for the rest of his life.

How convenient the liberal mind is that that they can forget the Clinton fired 3 times as many prosecutors on his watch and there was know out cry about that. Hypocrits! These people server as political appointees on an at will basis. Get over it and enough of the Dem fishing expeditions, your just making yourselves look like the petty little people that you truly are. Concentrate on some real issues like opening up oil drilling and exploration in our own country so we can get of the OPEC roller coaster ride we find our country on. If you can't be part of the solution, get out of business' way so the market can solve the problem. But that would be to go again some of St. Marx's tenets wouldn't it?

In 2002 when Max Cleland was running for re-election Karl Rove designed ads showing Max Cleland's face after Osama bin Laden and Saddam Hussein. The good old association factor harken to the days of McCarthism or to this day the Rev Wright events. Cleland lost. Karl Rove knows exactly what he does, he has given lectures and classes on winning by negative campaigning and the put them on the defensive. To even begin to claim Executive Privilege in this case is to insult the people of this great nation - while he banters forth on public airwaves and seems quite satisfied with himself and his conduct, there are some things the taxpayer has the right to haul him before Congress - we call that accountability. A word this Administration seems to think applies to everyone else, but them.
