Closing in on Rove

From CBS News The Politico:
(The Politico) Just off the House floor today, the Crypt overheard House Judiciary 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 doesn't, 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.

Fox News Update

Check this out. It's from Talkingpointsmemo.

Seems that to our friends at Fox "News", indicted Congressman William Jefferson (he's the Louisana Congressman with the alleged $90,000 allegedly found in his alleged freezer) and Congressman John Conyers look so much alike, they can't tell one from the other. Methinks they've spent too much time watching the Patty Duke Show:
Still, they're cousins,
Identical cousins and you'll find,
They laugh alike, they walk alike,
At times they even talk alike --

You can lose your mind,
When cousins are two of a kind.
Nice going, Fox. More evidence you've lost your collective mind.
