1. Rove is going down.
But Bush still stays afloat.

4. The White House IS Rove!
The Press corps on the other hand may feel finally free from his pudgy thumb squashing them.

11. oh really?
It's a good thing he might go and I suspect this misconception of Rove as ultra-mastermind/"Bush's Brain" etc. will finally be cleared up.

The White House is not rove. It is a gangster op in which the capos are interchangeable, and the Godfather(s) aren't even officially in the government.

But his departure may start things unravelling in a good fashion.

12. My point is....
the OP made the headline WHITE HOUSE BACKS AWAY FROM ROVE or something like that, which sounds like Bush/Cheney are disowning him.

5. Remember how Bush backed away from Chalabi?
"I may have met him at one time"

6. LOL
Give Bush a year or two after this to see what he says about Karl Rove. Rove is supposivley (ha) a political genius in their party so him backing away from Karl is going to be kind of hard. If he does go to jail this will help us win 2006/2008 easily.

8. Rove will still be in charge, jail or not
although I'm not sure they will be as fearless without him. The only one who is as mean as rove is cheney. The rest are too chicken to do the kind of shit those two do.

7. Or Ken Lay?
Last week the White House attempted to distance Our Great Leader from Lay, saying that "it has been a long time since they talked and suggesting it was only a passing friendship,"

10. Just followed Brad's links to Raw Story and Crooks Liars and watched
the video. The transcript is good, but you have GOT to watch the video! It is just F*CKING AWESOME! They are like pit bulls with a piece of meat, and Poor, Poor, Scotty boy has never looked more lost as he just kept doing the same 2-step.

I was doing the happy dance during the whole thing!

WATCH IT!

15. White House has no sense of loyalty. Use, abuse, discard... No sets...
Edited on Mon Jul-11-05 10:28 PM by HypnoToad
If Rove had a set, he'd take * down with him. That's what their lot does. Take down each other at every opportunity.

Scottie looked as bland and impervious as always, but somewhat grimmer.
