Daily Show: Rove subpoenaed after Leahy's balls grow three size
Daily Show: Rove subpoenaed after Leahy's balls grow three size
David Edwards and Adam Doster
Published: Tuesday July 31, 2007


After issuing a subpoena of President George W. Bush's Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove last Thursday, Jon Stewart thinks that Vermont Senator Patrick Leahy may have to buy some new pants.

The host of The Daily Show reminded viewers of the likely consequence of his action. "Well in D.C., they say Pat Leahy’s balls grew threes sizes that day," he said, assuring the audience that "we have a machine that does that."

White House Press Secretary Tony Snow denied the need for such maneuvers, claiming the White House "actually made Karl Rove available to that committee under conditions where he is going to tell the truth."

Stewart clarified exactly what those conditions were. “The room must be pitch black and festooned with lilies and beeswax candles," he said. "It must be a full moon but not too full! And his inquisitors must stand before him, naked, holding a bowl of Craisins, which are like raisins, but with cranberries. And then, and only then, can the truth be heard!"

Snow also shot back at the House Judiciary Committee for citing White House Aides Josh Bolton and Harriet Miers, both of whom refused to appear when they were subpoenaed for contempt of Congress.

1. "under conditions where he is going to tell the truth"
... LMAO! It sounds as though even Snowjob knows that KKKarl telling the truth is a rare occurrence!

And the only way I'd expect KKKarl to tell the truth is if he's hooked up to some kind of lie detector that will give him a coupla hundred watts if/when he lies.
