House Judiciary chairman subpoenas Karl Rove

The Democrats in the House, particularly Nancy Pelosi, seem to have a vindictive attitude. I can see Rove thumbing his nose at the House Judiciary Committee and yes, it is a waste of their time and the tax payers money. What purpose would it serve? They have enough to do without getting back at the Bush administration.

I think that Congress is doing the right thing, if any government offical broke the law, wouldn't you want to know? Did you defend the fishing expedition against Bill Clinton? Many republicans did, and that cost the American tax payers hundreds of millions of dollars. I think the money is well spent. I am sure if there is an investigation into someone in the Obama administration and they use the same excuse that Rove is using, you will be very upset. The truth should come out, and if anyone breaks the law they should be investigated, and procecuted.

Arrogant as Rove is I wouldn't doubt if he refuses to appear again. I don't necessarily think this is a waste of time or money considering these prosecutors may have lost not only their jobs but their reputations for political purposes and the former Governor may have spent time in prison unjustly. If these charges are true whoever is responsible should be held accountable for them. I don't think they should or that they will devote all of their time to this issue at this time but I think Congress should be capable of doing more than one thing at a time. We certainly pay them enough for them to do some multi-tasking! Annie

Some get rid of a few, others get rid of the lot, so why should Bush be any different. I think the one that needs to be got rid of, and the sooner the better, is Pelosi. She seems to think she beat Obama for President.

They accuse the Bush administration for firing a few U.S. attorneys at some point during the time of office for political reasons. But Clinton fired them all, when he took office, for political reasons and put in his own people. So which is worse?
