    Yet he told the American public he didn't know who the leakers were, and told us we may never know.

    Well, only if you didn't tell us, George.

    Bush is walking on thin ice. If he knew of Rove's involvement two years ago and withheld any of his info from Patrick Fitzgerald he could be indicted for obstruction of justice.

    According to the article, Bush was furious at Rove but stuck by him out of loyalty. You heard that right. Bush's loyalty is to a scumbag who outted a CIA agent working against WMDs instead of to the American people he's sworn to protect.

    Because by all indications (Cooper's testiimony, etc.) Rove was one of the leakers, and if he didn't know the other(s) he could have asked, and probably did.

    I forgot to mention that Bush originally said, too, that he would fire anybody involved in the leak. That has not happened. More false, cheap, lying bravado bull**** from the phony cowboy.

    The most important point here is that Bush's loyalty lies with Karl Rove and not with the country he swore to defend.

    if you say so but that isnt what the article you posted said. the article didnt say rove was the leak. that might have been in another article, called "things i made up" by rex.

    I doubt anyone this board doubts that I don't like Karl Rove. He is exactly what is wrong with our government. I still have yet to see anything that would suggest he is the source of the leak. I think Bush should still fire him because I just don't like him.

    Then you haven't been paying attention. Google "Matthew Cooper", to whom Rove leaked Plame's identity.

    Rove's testimony was that Cooper asked if Plame was an operative.

    I can't wait to find out the truth about all of this.
    What I don't understand is why Judith Miller would go to jail for 3 months
    because she didn't want to reveal her sources.
    Somehow she knew her sources before she went to jail and during?
    Now she doesn't know who that source is?
    Am I missing something?

    I will tell you this, if the Democrats are wrong, they have obstructed everything
    this administration has tried to do this second term.
    This could set the Democrats back for decades at the voting booth.

    Yes.

    Miller testified to the grand jury. They have been told her source. The source has admitted to being a source. Grand Jury testimony is secret. What is so hard to understand?

    The republicans did exactly the same thing with the Whitewater investigations, the Vince Foster rumormongering, the Lewinski investigation and many others during the Clinton administration. Did you think there was not going to be some payback?

    Don't hold your breath. George Bush is currently splitting the republicans and sinking their 2008 presidential aspirations. There is no way on earth a republican is going to win by campaiging in favor of more war in Iraq.

    Bush won wih less than 50% in 2000. Barely 51% in 2004. It won't take much to puncture that balloon.

    If you read above I said that if the Democrats are wrong meaning they are making false accusations that can't be proven.
    Clinton may not have been convicted but people went to jail for various things such
    as White Water, Susan McDougal.
    I know theres more but I don't remember all the details.

    Don't think the Democrats can win just because of W, they have to prove they
    can protect and defend Americans from terrorists.
    They have to prove they can do it better than Bill Clinton and Richard Clark.
    Are you keeping up with what Former FBI director Free is saying about these two?

    Vince Foster did kill himself I believe, are you saying it shouldn't have been investigated?
    Bill Clinton did more to encourage his own problems and investigations than the Republicans have done.

    Republicans won't campaign about the war in Iraq.
    Red, do you want me to send you some coverage of the war I have on VHS tape?
    There were terrorist camps there yet you guys forget, one was set up with a 747
    or something for terrorist training purposes.
    I'm not saying it was definitely Al Quada either because I don't know for sure.

    You want us to pull the troops out and come home now?
    You do acknowledge there are terrorists in Iraq now and we can't afford to lose to
    them?
