69. Excellent OP, thank you. And I will never forget what he did to Valerie Plame

or to Don Siegelman, or the US Attorneys who even though they were Republicans, refused to indict innocent Democrats on Rove's orders. Or that he has never been held accountable for all the crimes he committed against this country.

I was thrilled to see his complete Melt Down on Fox, and the irony that it was Fox who had to try to save him from embarrassment, his favorite tool for all these years.

But I still want to see him brought to justice. If for no other reason than to make a statement that this country will not tolerate his brand of 'politics' anymore.
