Kerry Campaign Statement on Karl Rove Testifying Before Grand Jury Today:
http://releases.usnewswire.com/GetRelease.asp?id=38240

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15 /U.S. Newswire/ -- In response to reports that Karl Rove testified before the grand jury investigating the CIA leak case, Kerry-Edwards campaign Senior Adviser Joe Lockhart issued the following statement:

"With two weeks to go before the election, the American people are still in the dark about how it is that their White House leaked the name of an undercover CIA operative to the press, jeopardizing the life of this agent and possibly violating federal law.

"Instead of hiding behind the lawyers he so often likes to criticize, George Bush should direct Karl Rove and anyone else involved to go to the White House briefing room and come clean about their role in this insidious act. If the president sincerely wanted to get to the bottom of this potential crime, he'd stop the White House foot dragging and fully cooperate with this investigation."

1. Ah but they are patriots. Why do you hate amerika so much ?
i honestly feel that they think they can get away with it.
Some one needs to go to prison for this.
And while we are at it, why have there been no indictments over the anthrax terrorism? Do we have other priorities?

3. This is another of those Bushit outrages
Edited on Fri Oct-15-04 02:26 PM by A-Schwarzenegger
that are just mind-blowing when you stop to think about it.
Everybody knows that somebody very high up in the WH outed
a CIA agent for political purposes. Everybody knows it!
It's treason! And yet what has happened? So far, not much.
But it's boiling behind the scenes, behind the billowing
curtain. And it still could blow. It just could, and right
on time. What absolutely corrupt soulless con-men running
this country.

5. Man, I bet they thought this thing was dead, and here it is, two weeks
before the election and that pesky Plame thing won't go away.

tsk tsk tsk

I'm almost thinking that it is BETTER that they have continued to bluff their way through this one....imagine if Scooter Libby (who?) would've admitted this months ago, it would be a distant memory by now.

6. Why doesn't "take charge" Georgie take charge?
He's such a resolute, steely-eyed, always-doing-the-right-thing kind of guy, why can't he get his own staff to come clean about who committed treason in his office?

Do you think maybe he's not quite the resolute guy his handlers like to try to paint him?
