Giant douchebag Karl Rove, has defied a subpoena to testify before the US Congress.
Rove's accused of using his position to influence prosecution at the US Dept. of Justice and was due to appear on Thursday before the House Judiciary Subcommittee.
The White House cited executive privilege as a reason that Rove and others should not testify.
It's been argued that internal White Hose communications are confidential and that congress cannot make officials testify.
But that excuse has been rejected by the Democrats, saying that his claim of immunity is invalid.
Following his refusal to appear, the Dem.s ruled that Rove was breaking the law by refusing to cooperate - a possible first step toward holding him in contempt of congress.
Rove was subpoenaed in May in an effort to force him to talk about whether he played a role in prosecutors' decisions to pursue cases against Democrats or in firing federal prosecutors considered disloyal to the Bush administration.
Meanwhile, at this year's G8 summit in Hokkaido, Japan, mental midget, GW Bush exited the room by pumping his fist and announcing, "Goodbye, from the World's Greatest Polluter!"
Hang tight folks, this guy's only got 6 months left.
