SAN FRANCISCO — Former Bush administration aide Karl Rove became a modern day Barney Fife at a San Francisco mortgage bankers' meeting.
As Rove sat charmingly and innocently on stage, a woman - identified as 58-year-old Janine Steed - confronted him and demanded he admit to fathering her child.
"Don't pretend like you don't remember me Karl! It's me! Janine Steed! I had your baby," she cried out to a stunned audience.
Rove lured Steed in with the dismissive poise of a lion, but just as she got close he pounced at her with the speed of cobra. Steed was caught off guard as Rove grabbed a set of handcuffs from his pocket and shouted "citizens arrest, citizens arrest!"
Steed was swept up by security guards before Rove could put the cuffs on. She was dragged off the stage kicking, screaming and pointing to someone else in the crowd. Just then, a twenty-something-year-old with a striking resemblance to Rove approached the stage and wept a single tear.
"Oh THAT Janine Steed," Rove said acknowledging his DNA standing obviously before him. "If it’s a job recommendation letter you’re after just call my assistant."
When questioned about the handcuffs, Rove's assistant explained that Karl is always prepared and eager to exercise his rights as a citizen to arrest other citizens. She cites a recent case in which Rove arrested an elderly woman for cutting him in line at Best Buy as he attempted to purchase the popular video game, 'Guitar Hero.'
