House Dems Promise To “Arrest” Rove If He Refuses To Testify

May 28, 2008 · Filed Under Legal News

You can always count on some good comic relief from the Democratically controlled Congress. The House Judiciary committee is planning to arrest Karl Rove if he refuses to testify about his role in the faux U.S. Attorney firing scandal.

This according to Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) who made the hilarious claim in an interview on The Obama Network MSNBC.

Asked by MSNBC host Dan Abrams if the committee would go far as having Rove arrested, Wasserman said it would.

“Well, if that’s what it takes,” she said. “I mean we really cannot allow the co-equal branch of government, the legislative branch, to be trampled upon by the executive branch. The founding fathers established three branches of government. We are a co-equal branch, and this is an administration that essentially has ignored and disrespected the role of the legislative branch for far too long.”

We’ve seen Kabuki theater from the Democrats before, but this is gonna be good!
