CNN

McSame and Caribou Barbie opened the eyes of reasonable, thinking Americans, when they saw for themselves the hate,and the negative "values" so clearly evident in the morally bankrupt ReTHUGlican "leadership".
McStain and his attack puppy were the best thing to ever happen to the citizens of America!
It opened the eyes of most Americans, and even those worried about the race factor, realized that there was a lot more to fear from the leaders that were in place, than the amount of pigment in someone's skin....and we kicked the rag tag bunch of neo cons OUT!!!
Now. it is time that the liars and thieves that made up this administration be held accountable for their actions!
How can the Republican minority,McStain, a,stand on their feet of clay,and their lying rhetoric and false indignation about the "rights of the American citizens" when it comes to getting some relief from the economic stress, courtesy of the "Grand Ole Party ", yet quickly forget their "principles" when it comes to bringing the creators of this chaos, these law breakers and war criminals to justice??
Throw the book at that scumbag Rove, Mr. Conyers...then get as many of the rest of them as you can!!
You LOST!.... angry, far right republicans,because the young people shook off their apathy, and LOOKED at where the country was headed under your direction. The YOUNG people didn't like what they saw, and they voted for change...,and for the guilty to be held accountable.
When that happens, all of America will have won!

All this will do is divide American even more. Conyers needs to get over it. It would be ridiculous to persue this, and the majority of Americans do not want this. This would be a great way for the Democrats to lose alot of faith in the American people. Most of us just want to move on. We have much bigger fish to fry. And truth be told, I would be extremely surprised if Obama really wanted to persue this.

What is really sad is that most of you blowhards voted for Bush – After all he won twice. But now that it is hip to bash Bush you want to jump on the bandwagon.

Can you just imagine what would have happened to us if that blooming idiot Gore would have won!!

Thank God for Bush!!!

Yawn...I thought we had important issues pressing. Economy, Mid East, Energy. You go congressman, I'm glad someone up there has their priorities straight!!

Hold is feet to the fire. He has tortured this country to the extreme. It is time for him to answer for his crimes against America

Just may be we will clear up a few of the reasons that bush and his lock step republicans did their best to destroy america. we need more people like conyors. i hope he procutes this to the limit. by the way the land that bush bought in paraguay . that country doesen't have an extradition law with the u.s.a.

In four years we will be throwing most of this administration under the bus for wasting our tax dollars and being stupid. It looks like the only change happening right now is that Obama is the puppet whose strings are controlled by Pelosi, Reid, Biden, Emmanual, and Clinton. Notice since he has been in office that you always see him with one of those people. Like the old howdy duty show. You do this and I 'll tell you what to do. I'm very disappointed it looks like my president cannot function on his own, I hope I'm wrong but it doesn't look good.

The democrats are doing a great job of living in the past. Everything has to be investigated wasting my tax dollars. Get over it and get to work making a future for America. Don't spend too much time looking in the rear view mirror, blaming the past administration, and pointing fingers. Last time I looked the democratic controlled congress had a lower approval rating than Bush. Lets get moving and limit congressional terms so we can get rid of the fat cats in congress that are grinning and collecting a check.

So let me get this right... The President is afraid of a radio host? Really? I don't understand why CNN is posting such nonsense. There is sooooo much going on in the world. Aren't republicans and democrats still Americans? Isn't that what democracy teaches us? That we have a right to choose and still be American? Nonsense. Please stop posting crap and stick to the news. The nation has been divided to long and this type of news will push the nation back 40 years.

JOHN CONYERS--AMERICA IS BEHIND YOU. NEXT SHOULD BE BUSH AND CHENEY.

Everyone knows he is guity...let it go...it will not fix the problems we are facing today and that is more important.

Karl Rove looking good in orange jumpsuits already.

With all the tough times people are being put through, it's nice to see one of the culprits have to answer for some of their deeds.

Rove is a war criminal and a traitor to his own country.
---------

Angie, I think YOU are a criminal. NOW prove or disprove either, darlin'!

Ditto! Let's throw the crooks in jail!
These guys annoyed us with their psuedo patriotism and stealing for too long. They are the worst type of Americans. White Mansion Trash.

I don't think that the new executive is going to give rove any privilege.

How sweet to see that face behind bars. However, we all know it won't happen. The laws seemingly don't apply to those in high places. I can't imagine how he can appear so poised on national television. However, if anyone is going to make him feel at home, it is likely FOX....

I hope Joe Wilson (or should I say "Plame's husband"?) gets to see his dream of seeing Karl Rove frog-marched in handcuffs come true on national TV sometime in the near future...

How about we look into Fannie and Freddie ! There are several of your friends that should be explaining their actions before the people of the United States and begging us for forgiveness.

Let the trials against Rove, Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, et al. commence! Let's throw the crooks in jail!
--------–
Let the trials against Pelosi, Reid, Frank, Dodd, Obama, Axelrod, Blago, Jackson, et.al. proceed. Throw the crooks in jail!

I hope Rove tells that idiot to pound salt.

Put Timothy Gaither in jail too. Oh I forgot Obama put him in charge of the IRS.

no one is above the law. give this kook a 6'x6' cell and chuck the key.

ha ha ha good luck with that......

So they are spending money and time (like there aren't more important things to do), to find out if some firings were warrantred or not! Let it be known that the Clinton administration fired more than twice the number as the Bush administration. Stop wasting our country's time and money with this infantile attempt at retribution.

Okay, let me explain this as simple as possible. Organizations like ACORN hire pretty much anyone who comes in for an interview, I know, I had a short stint at a similar organization. Well in order to keep your job you must sign up a certain amount of people and collect a certain ammount of money. Well what happened was that these people doing the grunt work we're afraid to lose their "jobs" so they went ahead and signed up people with names like "Tony Romo" "Terrell Owens" and "Marion Barber"...if you don't know who these people are, they're professional football players for the Dallas Cowboys. So obviously, these people weren't even going to go vote since THEY WERE MADE UP. So basically what happened is these people who did this were fired and the most important was that made up people aren't going to show up to vote. The right really did a good job making something out of nothing on this one.

The idiot January 26th, 2009 8:34 pm ET

Is anyone in Congress going to investigate the roll of ACORN in the last election? Or the union's roll in ACORN? Or the democrat roll in either? Hey they conspired to steal the country with George Soros

My opinion: time spent investigating Rove would be time well spent to re-establish the rule of law. (which is always the lifeblood of the Republic)

All Rove has to say is that everything was approved by both democrats and republicans alike. Maybe then we could clean out the crooked House and Congress and start over.

Enough of the crooked politics from both sides in the House and Congress!

Be interesting to see if anything comes of it. The new President evidently doesn't want to pursue this. But it's hard for me to imagine that HE would invoke executive privilege to protect Rove from testifying. Probably he sends a message to Conyers-behind the scenes-to focus on the economy....

Just Rove? What about the rest of the motley crew? Bush, Cheney, Rumsfield.......and on and on. Cheney had the nerve to get mad at Bush for not pardoning Liddy? LOL.

Rove needs to get an apple in that mouth and be put on a SPIT.

**Rove and his partner.

ROVE AND THE REST SHOULD FACE INTERNATIONAL TRIALS BECAUSE THEY WILL ESCAPE ANY U.S. TRIAL.

First two comments from a couple of dopes…

at least they gave their true opinions instead of just mocking another person's thought. Rove is a war criminal and a traitor to his own country.

Executive privilege is a word I've grown to hate.

fix the economy not your ego

Oh, some one must have woke up Conyers. Talk about being past it. Conyers is the poster boy for "time to retire".

First two comments from a couple of dopes...

If he does not show up they should charge him with contempt of congress.

do you think Rove cares? he'll never see the inside of a courtroom for his crimes. it's called executive priveledge,and he'll invoke it 'til his last day.

Rove is the tip and the base of the scandal iceberg. He and Cheney manipulated the system giving billions to their friends, pushing out people who disagreed with them and hold the government in their hands while the economy failed. More power to Conyers.

Is anyone in Congress going to investigate the roll of ACORN in the last election? Or the union's roll in ACORN? Or the democrat roll in either? Hey they conspired to steal the country with George Soros.

You can`t hide behind Bush or Cheney now Rove. If you have nothing to hide, step up and tell the truth for a change!

don't waste the peoples time w/ them dog and pony show hearings which no one has ever been brought to justice. conyers you should get to the bussiness of trying to pull michigan out of the miserable hole its been in for decades and stop w/ the farce hearings. michigan its time for a change, there's a whole clean SWEEP THAT NEEDS TO TAKE PLACE in this congress and senate. time for the sandbaggers and goldbrickers who's hanging on for the pensions and benefits on both sides of the aisle to hit the road.

Let the trials against Rove, Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rice, et al. commence! Let's throw the crooks in jail!

Mr Conyers should be investigating Barney "Fife" Frank, and all the other idiots that are raping our Treasury with their pet projects under the guise of an economic recovery bill. GROW UP, JACK!!!

Rove will talk all day on Fox News....but when it comes to "reality TV", he will clam up. He has to, he is guilty of obstruction, perjury.....and most of all....just being a despicable person non grata. What a loser...........but no one can pardon him. He"ll be on Fox News ranting and raving about anything but the truth...."Bush's Brain....HHAAAAA!!!!

come on get some balls, and actually make this snake show up in court, Rove has to go to jail. He gets the credit for the downfall of this country.

Of course he is involved in this tretchery. He was one of the puppets.

Finally.

Finally, Go John Conyers, who knows where this could go? Bet I got a good guess.

I hope to see him in cuffs and in a orange jump suit. keep pushing Mr. Conyers.

GOOD FOR CONYERS....... GET ALL THE BUSH-CRIMINALS IN TO FACE THEIR DAY IN COURT!

The Michigan Congressman should worry about our state and the problems we are having. An older man died in Bay City, Michgan, he froze to death in his home. Spend money on heat for people instead of looking back over things that happen years ago.

Rove should be in prison. For a many, many reasons.

Look, Conyers is wasting his time. If the Democrats really wanted to do this, it could have been a long time a go. They have ran congress now year almost 3 yrs. Face it Conyers, the Democrats don't have the stomach for this.

If that hate-mongering Rove goes before court to answer for what he's done (even if he ends up cutting some deal for a reduced sentence), it'll restore some of the faith I lost in the justice department over the Bush years.

hey john, screw off and how is this going to help michigan in these tough times!

i expect my subpoena from you soon, you pathetic piece of garbage.

Rove an all those who have done so much damage to our country should be fed to the lions...Nothing less

AT LAST! I hope that this is only the beginning of digging into the misconduct of the Bush/Cheney administration. These thugs actually thought that they were beyond the law. Just as Nixon so long ago said, "if the President does it, it is NOT against the law!"

Bush and Cheney and their lawless bunch have committed crimes, and they should have to pay for them just like any other criminals!

Get er done, John.

Now that is our new politics of bipartisanship or was that just a campaign slogan. I sadly believe the slogan prevails over what the country needs at this time.

Yeah, right – President Obama is afraid of Rush Limbaugh. NO ONE is afraid of Rush Limbaugh – rabid right-wingers will soon find themselves without an audience.

By the way, that message was for rush limbaugh...a non important person.

Glad to see it. It is time for the Bush Administration to talk about all of the back room deals they did. Someone is going to have to be responsible for the negative impact of some of the Bush Administration's policies. I'm waiting to see David Addington admit his sins during the past eight years.

No one is afraid of you as your opinions are only YOUR opinions and mean nothing to anyone with common sense. They have no value. If you have all the answers, why not go out and do something about it or run for office instead of sitting on your butt and criticizing everyone. If you can solve all the problems of the world...do so...otherwise leave the others who are trying to have some meaning in life for the people of the world alone. What an ego!

We deserve answers!!!!!!!

Thank you Mr Conyers for your brave actions in trying to hold the Bush administration accountable for their dirty deeds. At least some one in Washington has the courage to do this. I'm glad its you. Thank you again.

good

Way to go... I can't wait to see Rove, Bush and Cheney behind bars for all their crimes.

SCUMBAG...ROVE...YOU NEED TO GO TO JAIL ALONG WITH DICKY AND GEORGIE PIE!

now send him to jail

Let it be and get on with the important things

Under a new administration & new FOIA rules, there is no excuse for allowing Karl Rove to ignore this subpoena. Have the sergeant-at-arms pick him up at the Fox News studio & arrest him if he doesn't comply.

Rove won't talk unless we hire Cheney to waterboard him.

Get a life!

Give it up John. There is no way you will bring Rove down without dealing with the wrong W had done and the former VP. They are all connected an unless you are willing ot go after the whole next you will not be able to get any of them. Besides, we can't handle the truth.

Hey Karl,

Nobody to hide behind anymore.
Your so-called political genius was only the wool over america's eyes. Now that it is removed, it shows the ugly beast that you have always been. Since your bugging of your own office scheme during the Mark White/Bill Clemens gubernatorial race you helped steal. We have not forgotten your sly and deceitful scare tactics. You have no one to pardon your crimes, and nowhere to hids. You will testify, as you have never been above the law. Justice will be served.

Bring four orange jumpsuits with you Mr. Coyners, one for Rove, Bush, Cheney and Gonzales.

*APPLAUSE*

That's it democrats...DISTRACT! DISTRACT! DISTRACT!
It's your only hope of holding your majority in Congress in 2010 and keeping your guy in the White House in 2012. If you want people to buy your rhetoric about being the "party of the future," then you should stop fixating on the past.

Karl Rove needs to fry for all the nonsense he has orchestrated!!!

I wonder if President Bush wished he had pardon everybody on his way out the door?

Please let's move on I do not want to hear anymore about President George W. Bush and the worst eight years in the American Goverment history.

If Rove refuses (again!) he should be charged with contempt and jailed until he decides to testify....that's what would happen to me!!

Is Ken Starr going to be involved so that more money can be wasted? I think Rove is guilty but is it worth the cost of prosecuting him?

Get him John. You should have done this in the first place. Maybe once we put the wrench on that nut, he will sell the rest of them down the river. God please let eric Holder go after these criminals. I hate what they have done to America

Now that President Obama is in office and under the constitution is the head of the Executive Department of the US, isnt the executive privilege his and can't he waive it . It is the executive's privilege after all, and not Mr. Rove's who is a private citizen.

Its time for Carl Roves prison term.

2009, January 26: Rove, Cheney, Rumsfeld are not in prison yet. I'm not sure Bush will get there: he can always say he did not know anything, and it is hard to argue with that.

And if he keeps on stonewalling, Congressman, throw him in prison for contempt of court. Then move on to the rest of that corrupt administration.

No one is above the law, if we do anything that Rove Cheney had done we would be in the Pen

Rove is one disgusting human being. The man should be locked up. I firmly believe that when his time comes to meet his maker he will pay dearly for all his sins.

This is the kind person we need in washington. Someone who calls for justicee. I applaude you on this new move.. I have not heard CNN said anything about the alligation on unwarrant wire taping that bush administration was doing except for msnbc. NSA listen to every single of our phone calls, and went through one of our emails, and now the news is out, you don't even hear on CNN, except for MSNBC< KEITH< RACHEL. BRaVO gusy, I love John Adams. Freedom of the press

More of our hard earned money going to waste in order to push a political agenda!

Rove is a domestic terrorist, so when he flees the states to avoid the subpoena, use all means necessary to bring him back, then waterboard him to get the info. See how he likes it.

Lock him up and throw away the key. Put him in Gitmo. We'll figure out what the charges are in about 5 or 6 years. And he might want his snorting fat friend Rush with him -- hmmm, perfect couple.
