Karl Rove: Traitor
It is being reported that Karl Rove was the source that revealed the identity of CIA agent Valerie Plame. This story is just beginning to break, we'll see how much momentum it actually has. Given the shit this administration has gotten away with, however, I wouldn't be surprised if Rove managed to spin this into some sort of Congressional medal for himself.
The Huffington Post has more on Rovegate. (Do I get points for being the first to call it that?)
I say we send him to Gitmo.
I kinda like this article.
this should come as no surprise, though they SAY that he might have kept this from G-Dummy, I figure the Prez has sheltered Rove's rotten hide. I am willing to bet Rove's the person who got Jeff Gannon his clearance, too.
This is just one more instance of the Bush cabal doing what they want - Bush knew all along who the leak was, and was happy to stick it to Plame to get to Wilson for taking him to task on Iraq. and to top it off, he pull out the OJ-speak, insisting that his staff support any investigation to get the culprit. Shit, Bush, tell the truth ONCE, and save everyone the hassle - both of these pariahs are willing to let reporters go to jail over this, as long as their ass is in the clear.
Once they got away with telling the press they wouldn't talk about his past drug use, they just kept setting the rules with the media, and truly abusing their powers.
Values? they have none - nor do they have any morals.
Time will show what scumbags they really are, and all their crimes will come to light as well.
