In this clip from “The O’Reilly Factor,” Karl Rove briefly defends his decision to ignore a House subcommittee subpoena before Bill O’Reilly seizes the opportunity to suggest that the left-wing media hate him because his show is entertaining and successful.

Watch the clip here.

When before in history can a criminal boast
he hired and fired judges at the United States
Department of Justice and this was the least of his crimes?

F Abdallah: As I wrote previously. Anger is blinding both to the heart and the mind. Truth is hatreds victim.

The empire crumbles and it is time for the crooks to go to jail. It is not a left or right issue. It is war crimes and crimes against humanity, tampering with the judicail system and witch hunts for political purposes. Ruppert Murdoch should be deported and the rest of the Fox news should be out on the streets.

The way i learned it, there are six basic human emotions.  On the positive side -Love, Trust, Pleasure, on the negitive side - Anger, Fear & Pain. 

You’ll notice that Hate is not on the list.  Seems like many people do not understand the true nature of love & hate.  They are not opposing emotions at all.  Love is one emotion, while Hate is a combination of two emotions.  Anger & Love combine to create Hate. 

Once one understands that they can not hate somebody without loving them, they can begin to deal with their anger.  So just get over your anger…

Face it. It is what it is, a dog and pony show for the american taxpayer. Nothing more.

But then again, the steroid investigations was a major agenda item for this congress. Glad we got to the bottom of that one.

Just wait until the ObamaNation is in office… I would love to see a list of all the great things you think he is going to do so we can come back here and compare in 4 yrs. Give me the top ten list of things he is going to “Change”. Too hard eh?

Fadel Abdallah, Hatred blinds the heart and mind.

Holding onto hatred is like holding a buring rock and waiting to throw it at someone. You only hurt yourself.

Relax, Billy-Joe
=========================
JBlack! Of all the people posting on TD, you should be the last to lecture people about love and the demerits of hatred!

Hey kid! Since you’ve grown up to qualify for commenting on a public forum, you should know by now that both love and hatred are two basic natural human emotions. In my book of knowledge, a person who is not capable of hating what deserves to be hated, is equally not capable to know what true love is!

Get an education, JBlack!

Rep. Sanchez states that Rove has been given a second chance to appear and has dismissed it too. Now the question is why isn’t he in Jail?

This administration has repeatedly obstructed and manipulated and dismissed their responsibilities. Why give them the benifit of the doubt? There is no doubt, this is criminal behavior and it should have jail as a consequence. Do it now.

For a country that has more people incarcerated than any other modern world country, how is it we can’t put these people behind bars.  It is truly mind boggling.....
