Rep. John Conyers (D-MI) is going to put Obama’s openness and transparency claims to an early test — by re-subpoenaing Karl Rove to testify about the U.S. attorney firings. Will Obama support Rove’s executive privilege claims? Will Rove even bother asserting executive privilege with his patron out of the White House?
So many questions … but we may get answers pretty soon. The subpoena summons Rove for next week, Feb. 2.
