  Dear John, 

This sounds like a dream, doesn't it?   Well, it's not.  We have a unique
opportunity right now to send Karl Rove to jail, but only if we take
immediate action. 

All we have to do is pressure the 40 members of the House Judiciary
Committee <http://judiciary.house.gov/about/members.html> , make them hold
Rove in contempt and send him to jail.  We've never had such a direct
opportunity to hold Rove accountable.  No, this is not enough punishment for
his years <http://thinkprogress.org/leak-scandal/#rove>  and years
<http://www.crooksandliars.com/2008/03/15/don-siegelman-all-roads-lead-to-ro
ve/>  of crimes, but it's a huge start, and will send a very clear message
to the entire Bush administration.

We put together this video to explain the issues
<http://emptywheel.firedoglake.com/2008/07/10/bush-did-not-invoke-executive-
privilege-for-rove/>  surrounding Rove's failure to testify before Congress,
and why Rove should be held in contempt and sent to jail.  Check out Send
Karl Rove to Jail, and sign our petition to ensure that the HJC holds Rove
in contempt. 

Watch the video and sign the petition
