...can go on national television and not have a police escort waiting for him.

I'm reminded of those sting tv shows that have posted here on DU, wherein the sheriff hosts a fake game show and invites all the criminals in in order to arrest them. Why wasn't this done for Karl Rove, who is directly linked to several serious crimes, including blatanly ignoring a Congressional subpoena?!? How does this happen in a lawful society?

The answer is, it doesn't.

Just sayin'.

1. I know. If it were any of us, we'd be thrown into jail.

2. All the proof one needs
that you can't get your news from the TV


Now if there was some way of getting that point across to the American public


maybe like prosecuting him?

3. Indeed! It's a modus operandi of ABC to give voice to criminal minds.
I will never forget how 20/20 allowed the murderers of Matthew Shepard to have their say.

4. Has Congress requested a warrant be issued for his arrest?
The real question is, if not, then why not?

When it seems as though the new Administration is condoning the Felonious nature of the past administration that means to me that they just get a blanket pardon and we join in the complicity. I don't want to take on that burden . That's why we have laws. We have laws so crazy people don't feel like they have to be vigilantes to to receive justice. My cognitive dissonance maker is broke. I have an innate sense of what is fair and it's being trampled. I can't be the only one?

6. Yep. It points to how corrupt our government has become.
It seems, even with a majority in Congress, there is still a lot of house cleaning that needs to be done in future elections.
