Contempt on Karl Rove's face before his turn on Face the Nation when being served with our subpoena

(Karl Rove will be stealing elections in certain precincts around the country again next week November 2 2010 - And why not, Rove knows nothing ever happens to him, nor the republican candidate in question, nor the states that have a republican Secretary of State - who by law control the voting, the counting and the certifying of that states elections. All Rove has to do and has done, is deny, deny and deny - with unverifiable, no paper trails, easily hackable electronic voting & scanning machines Rove and his computer hacks can steal as they please and they have only gotten better at it through the years).

Imagine the look of contempt on Karl Rove's face this past Sunday as he swaggered toward his star turn on CBS's Face the Nation only to be served with our subpoena sanctioned by the Secretary of the State of Ohio.
The federal subpoena orders Rove to testify in deposition. Our attorney, Cliff Arnebeck, intends to ask Mr. Rove about his role in the theft if the 2004 election, and to discuss his orchestration of tens of millions of corporate/billionaire dollars in the one coming up on November 2, 2010.
As co-counsel and plaintiff in the on-going King-Lincoln-Bronzeville federal lawsuit, we have fought for six years to win justice and full disclosure in an election that Rove stole for George W. Bush.

In the course of this civil rights federal suit, we have seen the illegal destruction of hundreds of thousands of paper and electronic ballots that were supposedly protected by federal law.
We have seen 56 of 88 Ohio counties destroy most of their poll records, making a full recount of the 2004 vote an impossibility. Some of this destruction was done in defiance of federal law and a federal court order, for which no one has been prosecuted.
We have also seen the very mysterious and disturbing death of Michael Connell, Rove's former chief computer guru. Rove used Connell to establish the electronic tools and architectural framework through which the vote count manipulations that shifted the election from John Kerry to Bush were accomplished.
An experienced professional pilot, Connell died improbably in a fiery crash at his home airport in Canton in December, 2008. Connell had been deposed the day before the November 2008 election. Attorney Arnebeck was in the process of preparing for another round of questioning when Connell's life was ended.
Our subpoena is aimed at letting Rove explain all he did to give himself, Bush, and Dick Cheney another term in the White House.
But there is much more. With the US Supreme Court's infamous Citizens United decision, the floodgates have opened to an unprecedented wave of cash coming from corporations and billionaire donors such as the Koch Brothers. By many accounts at least $150 million in corporate/billionaire lucre is being laundered through Rove's American Crossroads.
Under Rove's orchestration, this money is being used to wipe Democrats out of Congress and to take control of the apportionment process at the state level throughout the country.
"Rove is the de facto head of a coordinated Republican national campaign in which Tom Donahue of the Chamber of Commerce is a senior partner, while the Republican National Committee has been relegated to junior partner status," says Arnebeck.
"Rove has filled the airwaves with high-priced attack ads funded by the mega-corporations and billionaires that stand to benefit most from another assault on the public trust and treasury.
"He and the Koch Brothers have also funneled large bundles of cash to a Tea Party astroturf organization meant to give the Republican campaign a grassroots veneer.

"From the fiasco of Florida 2000 through the theft of Ohio 2004 to the present, there has been no significant federal reform of the electoral process or curtailment of the use of easily manipulated electronic voting machines," adds Arnebeck. "With the added tsunami of cash from Citizens United , Rove's role as the principal perpetrator of a racketeering conspiracy, as defined by the Ohio Corrupt Practices Act, has been vastly enhanced."

"Our lawsuit stemming from the widespread 'irregularities' that defined the 2004 election has never been settled," concludes Arnebeck. "With the approval of the out-going Secretary of State, Jennifer Brunner, we have served Mr. Rove with a legally binding requirement that he
answer a few questions."

A few of the DUmmies are hopeful, but some have seen Lucy yank the football a few too many times already.

11. Torture it out of him?
He seems to think it's a good idea.

I'm of course kidding about a worthless yet horrible practice that continues to make America look like the worst of history's wretched regimes.

"Torture "...good enough for American citizens, but not foreign, al-Qaeda operatives!

31. Dudes, don't celebrate yet. The GOP House will hold "hearings" in which they grant immunity
to everyone who testifies the way they want them to testify. All the criminals will then be on record telling the story the way that Rove wants it told, which will crush the civil suit. This is what Congress did to cover up Waco.

47. What makes anyone think -
that there is any possibility at all that Rove or anyone else from the Bush administration will ever be held accountable? While I applaud the efforts of the poster and his associates for what they are trying to do I think they are wasting their time. As for any progress on this front since the Democratic party has been in power that is a dead issue. If the Republicans make significant inroads it will be because of a repeat of 2004 and all of this will be history. There may be only a couple of options left for democracy minded people and they don't involve the ballot box unfortunately.

57. Okaaayyy
So why do we think this one will be any different from all the subpoena's he was served with before....which be blatantly ignored. Rove thinks he's above the law because....well, he's gotten away with all the illegal, outrageous, downright nasty bullshit that he has pulled so far. What makes us think this will be any different? I sure don't!

59. Come on. Turd blossom isn't going to tell the truth after all these years of lies
I congratulate the State of Ohio on being the only state with the balls to bring even one of the Bush/Cheney criminals in for their day in court. I just don't think any appeals to whatever microgram of humanity that still exists in that man will do any good.

Haven't heard anything about this from a reputable source, and it's hard to tell whether the idiot is talking about something that happened this past Sunday (Was Karl on FTN then?) or hoping it happens this coming Sunday. Their imprecision with language is just as annoying as it is frequent.

In most states, attorneys can write and send subpoenas without anyone possessed of impartial judgment seeing them first, if the person served blows it off, their remedy isn't jailing the person for contempt, it is to go to the court where the case is pending and get a real judge to sign one, which may or may not happen.

The gist of the questions sounds like the kind of thing I'd respond to with "No," "Yes," "Deponent has no knowledge of the subject of the question." Minimalist answers drive idiots that spend 10 days trying to concoct bear-trap questions to suicide, if you're lucky.

So if I'm reading this right: the SoS is going to ask a lot of questions about something that never happened so when Rove gives him one long "WTF are you talking about, you jackass" they're going to demand he be jailed for obstruction and contempt and use that to justify their psychological denial of the fact their pet tax-dodging do-nothing billionaire lost.

When the sooper dooper pooper scooper intelligent elite lose an election there has to be some underlying nefarious reasons for it.
i.e. stolen.
