Here (attached) is a great letter from Jeff Adams to Rep. Conyers. Go thou and do likewise.
Karl Rove must be hauled off and imprisoned for contempt of Congress. This is not a "liberal" argument, as some have argued (or asserted); or, if it is, then "liberal" means "respectful of the Constitution and the rule of law." If Rove can simply blow off Congress, and remain completely unaccountable for his hip-deep involvement in the US Attorney scandal and the selective prosecution of Don Siegelman (to name just two of his apparent crimes), then we Americans should stop pretending that we honor justice, or expect the government to function legally, any more the terror-stricken and exhausted people of, say, Haiti or Somalia do. So far Pres. Obama has done great things, reversing many of Bush/Cheney's policies, and getting ready (evidently) to reverse a lot of others. But we can't "move forward" into sanity and health unless we look back clearly at what happened at the hands of that regime (including their election fraud, which Karl Rove also managed). We have to look back clearly, and investigate unflinchingly, and prosecute wherever justice says it must be done. This is not vindictiveness. This is self-protection. For if we coddle criminals like these, they will surely rise again, and keep on fighting to subvert democracy, until they have destroyed it, and ruined the rest of us.
