Rep. John Conyers (D-MI) to hold breath.

[trof]

For immediate release
From the office of Congressman John Conyers

This morning Rep. Conyers issued the following statement:
"If Karl Rove continues to fail to appear before the House Judicial Committee in response to our subpoena, I plan to issue a very, VERY strongly worded statement. I really, really, REALLY mean it this time.
Really.
All I can say is, he better just watch out.
And if that doesn't do it, I'm gonna just hold my breath until he does show up.
I swear I will.
I am NOT kidding!"

1. Or he could just issue a warrant for Rove's arrest. That'll settle that. n/t

2. It really is a very serious issue whenever the Congress surrenders...

its obligation and responsibility to oversee and to hold responsible those that blatantly disregard the Constitution and the legitimacy of the Congress itself.

3. Later, Conyers confirmed foot-stomping is not "off the table"

Sad, really.

4. ...I'll tell the Speaker of The House and she will holler at him louder.

5. Your headline is hilarious. n/t

6. It's time to walk the walk.

For years we've been hearing about how they will demand answers. Okay. They've demanded answers. Maybe that's all they ever really meant in the first place.

Getting answers, not so much.

7. Either do or not do -

There is no try.
