Karl Rove Calls Pelosi The Mad Queen

(NewsMax.com) Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s comments about clapping Karl Rove in irons and marching him off to the Capitol’s jail cell are like the fevered rant of a Lewis Carroll mad queen or the bumbling of Inspector Jacques Clouseau, the former top aide to President George W. Bush said.

Pelosi, D-Calif., currently House minority leader, made her comment to reporters while criticizing a House committee vote to pursue contempt charges against Attorney General Eric Holder.

She charged the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee move was political and irresponsible and something she avoided while speaker. “I could have arrested Karl Rove on any given day,” she said. “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.” However, Rove noted that while a House committee cited him for contempt in the investigation of the firing of U.S. attorneys in 2007, the House never took up the resolution.
