LOOKS LIKE WE WEREN'T THE ONLY ONES ASKIN' WHY NO ONE HAS SUBPOENAED ROVE

Will the Dems let him off scot-free?

In two posts this morning (here and here) DWT got a little smart-alecky and asked why with all this subpoena hubbub today no one thought of subpoenaing Karl Rove, the fount of the criminal activities pertaining to Purge-gate. Turns out other wonderers were wondering about the same thing. In fact, the question is so obvious that... even CNN asked! But they got "two Democratic congressional sources" to explain it to them.

Both sources told CNN the committees are building their investigation and-- like any investigation-- they want to build their case by talking to and gathering information from lower level witnesses and officials before they possibly move to the more senior witnesses.

“We want to build up and get documents to have basis to ask questions of Rove,” one Democratic congressional source explained. “It’s the way you do it in any investigation.”

But the source conceded it is likely the investigation will lead to a constitutional showdown with the executive branch and the likelihood is Congress will never get a chance to talk to any of these White House witnesses.

No doubt, In fact, that's exactly what we said earlier. So, why not just forget all the Rove order takers like Taylor and Miers, and just go for the big kahuna. If you're going to get into a constitutional battle with the Regime, you might as well get in a battle worth fighting.
