Poll: Congress Should Force Rove to Testify
"In a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll taken Friday-Sunday, respondents said by nearly 3-to-1 that Congress should issue subpoenas to force White House officials to testify."
"By 68%-26%, those surveyed say the president should drop the claim of executive privilege in this case."
When asked if Congress should -- or should not -- investigate White House officials' role in PurgeGate, 72 percent said Yes, and 21 percent said No.
Meanwhile Gonzales ran away from a press conference in Chicago yesterday because he did not like the questions. The conference was scheduled to last for 15 minutes, Gonzales the scaredy cat ran away after two and a half minutes. Gonzales refused to comment on Monica Goodling's refusal to testify.
These people couldn't appear more guilty if they tried. C'mon Congress, summon Rove!
Joe Gandelman has more.
