What did Bush know... and when did he know it?
Edited on Tue Jul-12-05 08:23 PM by newsguyatl
It's becoming pretty obvious Rove IS the leak.

What I want to know is - did Bush know, and if so, for how long?

If you read his language in the past two years when talking about this leak, all of his language is very carefully crafted. I can't imagine a man who can barely speak the English language, being so careful with his wording regarding the CIA leak.

Who was coaching him?




... Who else

1. Wait...you think Dr. Dean was coaching him?

Just kidding, the juxtaposition of the Dean photo and your question was kinda funny.

3. Rovegate=Watergate
Karl Rove=H.R. Haldaman

Dick Cheney=Sprio Agnew

George W. Bush=Richard M. Nixon

August 9, 1974 (Nixon Resigns)=August 9, 2006 (Bush Resigns)

4. Alas! That is the question!
I think he knew all from the beginning. He and Rove are spiteful little bastards and they probably sit together and cook up their little schemes, like to how to avenge political enemies (i.e. Joe Wilson).

Good to see you Newsguy! :hi:

5. Keep in mind that at the time of the Plame leak ...
... Rove was a political advisor, not a government employee. Someone must have leaked the information to Rove and Rove was not entitled to hear classified info at that time. The leaker to Rove is guilty of at least a security breach, quite possibly treason.

6. Absolutely...
and why did he protect him. Why is such a critical member of his staff, who has been responsible for countless of the President's decisions completely untrustworthy. How can a President be so stupid so as to let his top counselor lie to him.

Remember the bigger picture...

8. What didn't Bush know
and when did he not know it?

We may have a Reagan "I don't remember, I don't recall" situation.
