WASHINGTON — House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Wednesday that the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee is playing politics with its vote to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress, an action she said that even she didn’t seek as House Speaker when she thought someone was legitimately deserving of it.
“I could have arrested Karl Rove on any given day,” Pelosi said to laughter, during a sit-down with reporters. “I’m not kidding. There’s a prison here in the Capitol … If we had spotted him in the Capitol, we could have arrested him.”
Rove was senior advisor and deputy chief of staff to former President George W. Bush from 2001 to 2007.
Asked on what grounds she could have arrested Rove, Pelosi replied, “Oh, any number. But there were some specific ones for his being in contempt of Congress. But we didn’t.”

well, that doesn't speak well for her, does it?
she is just too clueless to understand what she said.
What a worthless botoxed ho she is. Karl would cause her to dissolve with just one look.
Karl reminded me of a pudgy little egg head who was told repeatedly by his mother how special he was- People called him a genius and and architect of the glorious Bush double dynasty...Rove was reported to be the shrewdest mind in AMERICA...If he was such a smart advice giver...how come none of those smarts were transmitted to Bush? It was never evident that Rove was a genius...it was all myth.
A 'botoxed ho" - that's brutal...wonder if botoxin seeps into the frontal lobe?

W-e-l-l .. She would have had to arrest him .. for us to know what he did wrong!
Regardless now can the persident claim executive prevelege if the administraition knew nothig about this as they have in writing from attorney genral and in speech by Obama? This is involing the murder of a Border agent;no small crime.
