Waiting For Rove

In early March, Karl Rove reached an agreement with the House Judiciary Committee to answer deposition questions concerning the firing of U.S. Attorneys. When will that happen? Rove's lawyer anticipates that the deposition will take place next month.

Robert Luskin told TPMmuckraker that the Obama White House has been painstakingly sorting through the documents related to the firings, and is providing them to Rove and to the House Judiciary committee simultaneously.

As Jeralyn observed in her discussion of Rove's agreement to be deposed, the documents are likely to be more valuable than Rove's testimony. For those of you who are looking for a new drinking game, downing a shot every time Rove can't remember a key fact should lead to quick intoxication.

    As many shots as the Alberto Gonzales appearances or the granddaddy of them all Bob Haldeman.

    I think Haldeman couldn't recall over 100 times.

    The pressure's on, if Rove doesn't best Haldeman we'll have to wait for the next Republican administration for another chance to witness a record breaking performance.

    When Sheila Jackson-Lee and Maxine Waters get to question him.  Don't know if any relevant questions will be asked, but it will be a show to watch!

    of the home version? all witnesses should receive one, as a lovely parting gift.
