Rove- (political thread)
so let me get this straight... Bush says a few months ago that when they find out who the people were who leaked the information about the CIA operative, they would be fired. Now we find out his top aid is actually one of the people involved and bush isnt going to fire him.
Sounds to me like bush lied to the public...................what am i missing??/

G.W. didn't lie. He just didn't have all his facts straight. The man didn't violate any laws or guidelines to warrant firing or criminal action to be taken.  |

There is debate as to if Rove really leaked Her name, and if He did, did He know she was an undercover agent. At this point there isn't enough public info so say for sure, but it's looking like things are fuzzy enough they may have difficulty pinning Rove on this charge.
On the other hand, clearly the Whitehouse has been saying for 2 years that nobody in the Admin was involved, which by Rove's own lawyer turns out not to be true...If Bush holds to his word Rove should go on this alone.
There are other charges of fraud and using His position for political gain that could cause an indictment. There's a reasonable chance this may happen.
The GOP strategy here is to deny, delay and hope some news story takes the media spotlight off this...but given Rove's profile and reputation I wouldn't expect it if I were them.
Seeing that the investigation is still going on, and that people are going to jail over it...I'd wager something very serious did occur...and Rove and perhaps other Whitehouse officials were involved.
This could explode very soon.

Rove-political thread)
Eben, I get the impression that you just don't like Bush, and is looking for anything that would make him look bad to the rest of us!!!!
