Rove's defense reminds me of that old joke.

[Guaranteed]

When accused of never giving back something that he had borrowed, a man says, "Well, to begin with, I never borrowed your lawnmower. Secondly, it was BROKEN when you lent it to me. In any case, I gave it back to you last Saturday after I mowed my lawn with it."

Someone needs to ask Rove: "Have you quit outting Valerie Plame yet?"

2. yeah

the argument coming from the Repubs right now is pretty weak.

we need to keep pushing this, so that they keep pushing this, and keep sending their talking heads out to the news channels to parrot their talking point crap.
the more they do that, the less the people will believe their excuses.
