Never forget: In 1992 Bush 1 fired Rove for leaking to Novak!
http://www.newshounds.us/2005/07/20/karl_rove_and_foxs_missing_decade.php

"in 1992, Rove was fired from then-President George H.W. Bush's re-election campaign for leaking a negative story to the press concerning Bush fundraiser Robert Mosbacher. Not only was Rove fired for leaking a story to the press, the "press" just so happened to be reporter Bob Novak, whom we all know is the reporter that wrote the story in which Rove has been implicated, outing CIA agent Valerie Plame."

The fact of the matter is that Rove is the person who outed Plame and remains on the job despite bu$h's promise to fire the person who put politics ahead of national security.

5. Remember the pre-indictment
story that came out, supposedly to "help" Bush* by relating how he "took Rove to the woodshed" about his "hamfisted" handling of the Wilson matter?

That's exactly what we've been talking about here....

Bush* wasn't mad that KKKarl did it, he was mad that he was clumsy enough to get caught....

we need to play that theme

Harry Reid fired the first shots across the Repubs bow this morning saying that the President and Vice President should apologize to the American people...that will morph into The President and Vice President CONDONE illegal activity.

4. Yup...
and he no longer is unknown. How many people before this investigation actually knew who Karl was? Not as many as today.

6. Junior sure as hell isn't gonna do the same. KKKarl will have to be
drug, screaming and kicking, out of the White House.

A thousand years of fumigation will never get the cooties from this administration out of there.

7. Gee, could it be a PATTERN among neo cons?
I am reminded constantly of this picture which was taken, interestingly enough, in June 2003 at a party for Novacula.
The button says "I'm a source, not a target." Supposedly a favorite saying of Novacula's.

9. Rove Invited terrorist to WH.....
Did Karl Rove Overrule the Secret Service to Invite Terror Suspect Al-Arian to the White House Briefing?
23-Feb-03


Insight, the Moonie magazine, reports that Sami Amin Al-Arian was invited to a White House briefing on 6-22-01 led by Karl Rove (Cheney cancelled at the last minute due to negative publicity) despite being under investigation for a leadership role in Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Al-Arian's name would have set alarms ringing at the Secret Service, so how did he get an invitation the White House? An anonymous associate of the GOP's top Islamic influence-peddler, Grover Norquist, insists he specifically warned the White House about al-Arian.

So who ignored Norquist and overruled the Secret Service? There's only one person with the power to bring a suspected terrorist right into the White House - Karl Rove. We demand a full investigation!
