So Let Me Get This Straight

Karl Rove supposedly encouraged an investigation that resulted in a corruption conviction for former Alabama Governor Don Seigelman.

And for that, he gets called before Congress to testify? Shouldn't he get a medal or something?

I guess he picked the jury or something, too. There is a woman who claims that Rove was 'targeting' southern Democrats and that she was Rove's point woman in the whole shebang. She has no evidence other than her word and calls to a number in Virginia (where Rove has never lived, by the way). This all makes sense if you don't take into account Rove actually had a job in the White House. And in the face of this damning evidence, Rove has refused to testify.

Karl Rove-boogeyman of the Democrat Party. He will soon be accused of the Kennedy, Lincoln, Garfield, and McKinley assassinations, the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald, planning Burnside's assault on Fredericksburg, and being Aaron Burr's second in his duel with Alexander Hamilton. They wonder why the Congress last approval rating was nine.

Rep. Whiplash, you say you want out of Iraq because it's costing money. How much is this going to cost?
