Judge says "It's about time," to Rove Arresters

The four Iowans arrested last Friday for attempting to make a citizen's arrest of Karl Rove

Retired Methodist minister, Chet Guinn, 80, and Des Moines Catholic Workers, Ed Bloomer, 61, Mona Shaw 57, and Kirk Brown, 25, were arrested at a Des Moines country club where Rove was appearing at a Republican Fundraiser.

Shaw was the first called before Polk County Fifth Judicial District Associate Judge William Price.

After entering her plea, the judge asked Shaw, "Mamn, what were you doing at the Wakonda Country Club?"

"I was attempting to make a citizen's arrest of Karl Rove, your honor," Shaw answered.

"Well," the judge looked up and said, "it's about time."

2. It's way past time.

Why is he still walking the streets?
What happened to the congressional/judiciary
decision to arrest the bastard?

3. That's good, but the judge still could have dismissed the case, couldn't he?

Or even charged the police for interfering with a valid citizens' arrest?

9. Great idea.....

Let's start a fund here at DU.
Contributors get to question Rove for 15 hours after he's captured. Consecutively.
