Subpoena Issued to Karl Rove

Finally the man behind the U.S. Attorney firings is being forced to testify.

Vermont Senator Patrick Leahy is subpoenaing White House political adviser Karl Rove to compel him to testify about his role in the firing of 8 United States Attorneys.

Leahy says he's also subpoenaing White House political aide J-Scott Jennings.

Leahy says he's exhausted every avenue seeking the voluntary cooperation of Rove and Jennings.

Why are so many people willing to protect Karl Rove? He will never testify and when he doesn't a Contempt of Congress charge needs to be filed. These people feel they are above the law and while the Republicans had the majority they were. Times have finally changed.

This is what Congressional oversight looks like.
