16. So true whistle...Karl Rove got another story out there and kept
real research from being done...

Karl Rove was behind the J H Hatfield's "Fortunate Son" book info on W's drug use...

""St. Martins Press promised to turn Fortunate Son into “furnace fodder.” It withdrew 70,000 copies from bookshelves and destroyed them. But a small publisher Soft Skull Press reprinted the book with the banner “The Book They Burned is Back.”

Hatfield had previously refused to reveal the source of his information about Bush’s alleged cocaine arrest. He now to decided to name him. He claimed it was none other than Karl Rove, Bush’s closest political adviser.

If Rove did indeed leak the information, he couldn’t have leaked it to a better subject. Soon after publication of the Fortunate Son, Hatfield’s credibility came under fierce attack.""

So, Rove leaks to a guy with a criminal record, how convenient. And this time around Rove leaks "memos" so it should come as no surprise that a source close to Bush provided CBS News with a wild goose to chase...Pure Karl Rove redux ! Unfortunately, no one checked further into Bush's "Lost Year" and community service mentioned....
