It doesn't seem to me that the media is dropping this hot potato. And if the Democrats are smart, do their homework on Roberts and work together, I think there is a GREAT chance we can keep the Republicans on both matters.

I firmly believe that at the center of Rovegate is not the White House and the Republicans versus the Democrats.

No, it is the White House & Republicans versus the CIA, the FBI, the Democrats, the mainstream press and a few ex-Administration officials.

Keep stirring the pot.

1. I totally agree. I think everybody in the MSM knows how big this

story is and they don't to look like they didn't know what was going on all along. Keep that pot stirred. It's a much bigger story than Roberts.

[aquart]

4. Roberts isn't a story.

Except for women once again being betrayed by George. What a sweetie.

Does George have any caucasian women in high office? He uses women to fill the minority photo op spots and figures he kills two birds with one stone.

I thought George might go for an incendiary choice to completely derail Rove, but this is barely a speedbump.

Still, this is why we have to keep fascists out of the White House. (Sorry, but an old-fashioned good-for-nothing-but-destruction fascist is all he is. All Rove is.)

[aquart]

2. Damn straight.

The Democrats are definitely not alone on Rove. However, the MSM remains iffy. They only bite if they smell blood in the water. The FBI? I wouldn't depend on it. The CIA has been purged BUT ex-agents are not happy puppies and that's an anger we CAN depend on. And you left out the military.

I keep thinking about the soldiers who barely applauded until they were cued by the White House advance team. They were ordered to be quiet until their officers cued them to applaud. The officers never did.

Most of the country thinks George is dishonest now. Gas is up, the war is a catastrophe, and George wants to destroy Social Security while making sure no one can rely on collecting a pension from the job.

Never let up for a second. Run these crooks out of town.

3. You may be right about the FBI. I included them because Rove lied

(from the looks of it) Rove lied to the FBI about his leak to Cooper. I'm guessing they don't like being made fools of either.

[aquart]

5. No, you're right. I forgot that.

Everytime Rove issued a lying excuse, something leaked out that contradicted every word. FBI might well be the source.

Well, well, well. Deep Throat lives.

[writes2000]

8. You've noticed, too? Someone's counteracting every Rove move in the press

And it has to be someone on the inside of this case.

It is SO interesting to watch.

Is it CIA? Is it FBI? Or is it someone else?

[aquart]

9. Not being an insider, I'm just watching it like tennis.

Some idiot "reporter" female on Nightline last night actually pooh poohed everything because the grand jury might take "years." Moron. It's been sitting for two years. Trust me, those people want to get home. But I'll bet money they're enthralled and maybe just a wee bit addicted to being on the inside. But this thing is coming to a head. They wouldn't have put Miller in jail if they were still years away from a finding.

Somebody has GOT to ask Bush if he'll pardon Rove. And Condi. And Scooter. And Cheney. And Matalin. And...

6. It is the WH and SOME Republicans...the polls have been abysmal

for B* and Rove...70-90% disapprove, want Rove fired, think something is being covered up etc...even AFTER the 'talking points' this weekend. Many Republicans sent their sons and daughters to this unjustified war you know. This is what B* , Cheney, Rove et al are so concerned about. TRUMPED UP CHARGES FOR OUR WAR WITH IRAQ...

WE HAVE TO KEEP THIS ISSUE ALIVE.

7. right on
