http://www.legitgov.org/#breaking_news Conyers: 'We're closing in
on Rove' 15 May 2008 Just off the House floor today, the Crypt
overheard House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers tell two
other people: "We're closing in on Rove. Someone's got to kick his
ass." Asked a few minutes later for a more official explanation,
Conyers told us that Rove has a week to appear before his committee.
If he doesnt, said Conyers, "We'll do what any self-respecting
committee would do. We'd hold him in contempt. Either that or go
and have him arrested." Conyers said the committee wants Rove to
testify about his role in the imprisonment of former Alabama Gov.
Don Siegelman, among other things. "We want him for so many things,
it's hard to keep track," Conyers said.

House panel rejects Rove's offer on Siegelman case 14 May 2008
Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee have rejected Karl Rove's
offer to provide written responses to questions about the federal
prosecution of former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman. In a letter to
the former White House adviser's attorney, Committee Chairman John
Conyers and several other Democrats said Rove's written responses
would not allow for 'give-and-take' questioning. They asked Rove
to reconsider his refusal to testify in person and under oath,
asking him to respond by May 21.

Biden: Bush's comments were 'bullshit' 15 May 2008 Sen. Joe Biden
(D-Del.), piling on to Democratic complaints about President [sic]
Bushs speech in Israel today: "This is bullshit, this is malarkey.
This is outrageous, for the president of the United States to go
to a foreign country, to sit in the Knesset ... and make this kind
of ridiculous statement."
