Rove Officially Refuses to Testify ... Will the House Follow Through on Threats to Arrest?

July 08, 2008

Karl Rove's attorney sent the House Judiciary Committee a letter stating that Rove will not be attending a hearing that he has been subpoenaed for on July 10th, citing executive privilege.

What will the House Judiciary Committee do: let it slide or arrest him for contempt (as some members have threatened)? How do you think Rove's refusal to show up should be taken?
