Reply #4: The Corporate Media Still Shelters Him

[KharmaTrain]

And I don't just mean Faux...but the entire "establishment". He must still have some interesting 8 x 10 glossies in his dossier. The media still thinks this man is powerful and quiver at his mere presence...(right David Gregory???).

The interesting thing is how the Rover has been laying low since he skipped out on his subpoena. And also how quiet his friend in the corporate media are. It's not like if it were a Democrat...then for sure we'd hear about how he was a fugutive and would hound and hound until he relented. There's be a 12 part exposee in the Washington Post (oops that's Gary Condit), endless calls on CNN for him to appear before the HJC and hate radio would howl endlessly about all the things he had to hide. But since it's Rover, IOKIYAR.

While I doubt they have the "cajones"...I'd love to see inherent contempt thrown at the bastard and he's frogmarched into the Capitol basement...(with Joe Wilson doing the play-by-play), but I think there's a bigger game at play here. As I've said in the past, I'm convinced Rove is daring to be indicted...and then his buddy georgie can swoop in and pardon him and preventing him from having to appear in any court proceeding. I think Conyers and others know this as well and don't want to really go after him until after boooshie is gone. In the meantime, one hopes the noise against Rove continues to rise.

Ultimately I think Rove's ego will be his own undoing. Without the power he once had, he'll have less friends to hide behind and if the GOOP loses big this fall, someone's gonna have to take the fall...
