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.
The arrest complaint also says they accused Rove of treason, sedition and subversive activities for fraudulent acts leading to the deaths of 300,000 Iraqi civilians and 4,000 U.S. Military personnel.
Kirk Brown and Mona Shaw, two of the four arrested Friday, attempted a similar arrest last March when Rove spoke at the University of Iowa.

Republicans only method of debate is to appeal to the emotions of UNeducated and ILlogical persons. Republicans insult and discredit anyone who dares to disagree with them. Why? Because the facts of logic and history do not support the idiotic agenda republicans are always trying to advance.
9/11 happened on bush''s watch and 9/11 had nothing to do with Iraq. There''s a couple of facts which others like so well.
same reason your Democrat led congress has a 9% approval rating, while Bush is at 38% approval. Team Bush has beat you libs every time, now get over it. Oh, Just one more thing to add.. FACT: there have been no terrorist Attacks in the USA since 911.. thanks to BUSH policies.

I belive you can make a citizen''s arrest if you witness someone break the law but that does not give you the right to drum up some charge yourself and make a citizen''s arrest. If you could I would arrest these 4 people and charge them with being stupid in public.
