Two people attempted a citizen’s arrest on Karl Rove as he visited Iowa. Rove was paid $40K to lecture at the University of Iowa. The crowd was less than friendly frequently interrupting his speech:
Have you ever shed a tear over the war in Iraq?
“I shed a lot of tears and I have been inspired by many of the people who feel their son or daughter should not have to die in vain,” Rove replied.
“Can we have our $40,000 back?”
Rove replied, “No, you can’t.”
The two people who tried to perform the citizen’s arrest on Rove said the charges were for his crimes while a member of the Bush Administration. Gotta love ‘em for trying. Police removed the arresting citizens.

Good. That man should be shunned, scorned, and shamed until he drops dead.
Can we run him out of the country? St. Helena? Siberia? Are you game?
We should probably get an exorcist to step in before we go and heft him off on someone else.
I’m looking forward to the day when people won’t offer him money to speak.
I looked at the scholastic interview with Bridget McCain, and it just makes me all the sicker that Rove did what he did in 2000.
Then he has the nerve to use words like “love” and “compassion” when talking about the child a few days ago.
The man is beneath contempt.
He makes more in a night, than I do a year. That alone is worth a heckle and citizen’s arrest.
He’s lucky he didn’t get tomatoes pitched at him.
Rove mirrors what’s wrong with Bush’s Presidency…denying reality while creating your own.
Preaching small government while racking up $3 Trillion in an illegal invasion isn’t conservative; it’s downright insane!
Neocons have highjacked the conservative name and done something completely different.
