Nadler: If Rove won't testify, he's 'presumably' jail-bound

David Edwards and Stephen C. Webster

According to Congressman Jerrold Nadler (D-NY), should Karl Rove continue refusing to give testimony, the House of Representatives will "presumably" hold him in contempt, landing Rove in jail.

When House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers (D-MI) issued a Monday subpoena against former Bush Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove regarding his alleged involved in the political prosecution of an Alabama governor, and the firings of nine US Attorneys, he likely expected a fight.

4. Only if Holder will pursue it, as we all remember how Mukassey(sp)
would not..If the Justice Dept decides it won't pursue the matter then the Contempt Citation is useless.

6. The thing of it is the rover is a coward down deep inside
and once cornered he'll squeal like the pig he is. He'll take the cabal down just as sure as he helped to build them up to begin with. I would say its not looking too good for the bush/cheney cartel about right now. Oh happy days are here again...the light has been switched on, hope has returned
