(AP) Des Moines police arrested four people Friday who attempted a citizen's arrest of former White House adviser Karl Rove.

Rove was in Des Moines to speak at a fundraiser.

A news release says a retired minister and three members of the Des Moines Catholic Workers community were cited for trespassing and released.

The four accused Rove of election fraud and conspiracy to commit offense or to defraud the United States in the time before the Iraq war.

Good on those brave people! Desperate times call for desperate measures. Too bad Congress is too cowardly to do its duty.

4. So Rove is back in the United States and not answering his subpoena.

Can't those citizens sue for false arrest?

7. Though I am Currently a Democratic, I am amazed!

It seems the "Rank and File" Democrats are more angry, and more concerned about Our Constitution, and Our Country, than our politicians are. So Many Democratic Leaders in Congress Vote with the Republicans all too often, and currently have not issued an arrest warrent for Bolton, Meiers, nor Rove!

8. Rove should willingly submit himself to the justice system before he becomes a victim of vigilantism
