In reply to the discussion: Why? Why would Anonymous release evidence against Rove? [View all]Bibliovore
(185 posts)103. Which do you mean?
Do you mean the battle from prosecution of Bush-administration war-related crimes, or of 2012 election tampering? Neither battle would be at all pretty, but I think there might be more current taste/tolerance for handling the election crimes. (I am NOT saying they're necessarily worse. They are, however, nearer, both geographically and temporally.)
Rove and Gingrich are indeed pretty awful. I don't wish pain on anyone, but I do wish they (and many others) would get the heck out of attempting to manipulate the United States for their personal ends.

No one is claiming what you state. Rove is as touchable as Oliy North or Scooter Libby.

Nope--as long as the government didn't steal it, 'stolen' evidence is perfectly fine
