Rove will get it quashed. I don't think anything will happen until after the next inauguration. And, only if the next president's administration has the nerve to see it through.

You may be correct but at least this will lay a solid foundation for future prosecutions.

rove needs to be stomped. he is a f**king fascist just like his father.

let's face it----he is the one that created "Executive Privilege" for the President and Cheney etc, and not only will he use this (i.e. he cannot indulge anything because of top security), but even SHOULD he get indicted, The Chimp-in-Chief will make sure , like Fibby Libby, he gets pardoned and forgiven! I think the public is going to have to take care of rove themselves! (I still remember the time when Protestors were outside his house, and he went running out like a rabid old woman, screaming at them that he had children in the house! hahaha, like his spawn of slugs did not already have his number)

Personally,I wouldn`t really do anything but keep it alive until w is out of office and cannot pardon him.Rove deserves to spend the rest of his life in prison.

Dear Mr. Senator Conyers, nice job! Now when Mr. Rove won't answer a question, throw him in the cellar at the capitol until he is ready to answer. Rove has no executive privilege because he is not the president. I don't belive the president has executive privilege either, other than pleading the fifth. You could also supeona bush and cheney if he implicates that he can't answer the questions because it involves them.

Thank you Mr. Representive John Conyers, excellent job. It's about time to make Rove the weasel sweat for a while and throw him in jail for a while to make him talk. Then get Bush and Cheney when they leave office. When those two become private citizens again, it would be a perfect time to get them and try these two for war crimes as well for the crimes they have committed in this country.

With all due respect to Darien, the perfect time was about a year ago.

To the great shame of the American People back in `72, Nixon won by a landslide. To the great credit of the Congress, the media, and *both* parties he was gone in less than two years.

In 2004 Bush did not get such a mandate. But in spite of far more serious crimes than Nixon, he remains in office. I can only guess at why the Democrats are still triangulating, even this late in the game. The buck doesn't stop with Rove.

Impeachment is and was less about simple removal of an official and more about forcing them and their supporters to defend their actions on the floors of Congress. Nixon wisely resigned rather than face such a task.

I would rather see McCain (or Bush) attempt this feat from the Senate chamber than any canned television debate. It is not too late, but it is not too likely either.

I am aware that we should have done a year ago. But we couldn't really do very much since Rove and Bush kept playing these stupid legal moves to defy the will of Congress. At this point, I just happy that finally that Congress is starting to go after this criminal regime. I think my guess is that they are waiting until Bush and his criminal band are out of office and then they are going to after them. Because if they attempt it now, Bush will either pardon Rove himself to avoid possibly having Rove spill the beans and give Congress the evidence they need to impeach Bush and Cheney with. Or Bush could tell Rove to not show up again and then run out the calender which is what Bush is doing right and hoping the American people would forget about the criminal acts, potential acts of treason and war crimes that Bush and his criminal regime have committed. Because right now if Congress can't do anything, then the international court in the Hague can put Bush and Cheney on trial and then punish both of them.
