Wasserman Schultz: Judiciary Committee Willing To Arrest Rove If He Doesn't Testify


Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) said that the House Judiciary Committee would be willing to arrest Karl Rove if the former White House official doesn't testify about his role in the firing of nine U.S. attorneys in 2006.

Wasserman Schultz, in an interview on MSNBC Tuesday, echoed the demand of House Judiciary Committee Chairman John Conyers (D-Mich.) that Rove would not be allowed to invoke executive privilege to avoid testifying. Rove could not invoke the privilege since he said he did not have conversations with the president about the attorneys' firing, Wasserman Schultz said.

Asked by MSNBC host Dan Abrams if the committee would go far as having Rove arrested, Wasserman said it would.

the authorities walk onto a live Faux News segment and cuff him.

What actions can they take?

I remember seeing something a couple of week back about the Justice Department said they would refuse to carry out a warrant on Rove. Tried to find it but could not.

being "willing to." After years of empty threats, why should the GOPers or the American people believe they will actually follow through?

Actions speak louder than words, and so far, they have only whispered the possible intent. They need to state it clearly.
