Is anyone paying attention to the 'outrage' being directed at Karl Rove over the "leaking" of the name of an "undercover" CIA "agent". I won't bore anyone with details, but suffice it to say that, a) she really was not "undercover" and had not been so for over 5 years, b) Karl Rove apparently never mentioned her by name and, c) it appears that no 'crime' has been committed. None of this addresses the fact that Joe Wilson's integrity is shaky in the given context. Another bizarre 'question' is why the New York Times will not reveal nor let their reporter reveal (even though she is incarcerated) the source that they used in this [almost non] story. Again, there are many, many variables to sift through to determine if Karl Rove did anything improper and if it was really him who is responsible. But, the elites in the media have already convicted Karl (and the entire Bush Administration) and they are just waiting (and hoping) to obtain the proof.
And then, in come the clowns. I mean, how much ranting and raving can come from the Democrats? Can Charles Schumer, Henry Waxman, and John Kerry be serious? The political grandstanding and 'demands' of the Left is outrageous to say the very least. And they actually want the President to 'cooperate' with them on the Supreme Court nomination process so that we can "bring the country together"?
[Insert a very long pause here. I am at a complete loss for words.]
This is a classic example of the political chicanery of the Democrats and the psychopathic left in this country. They cannot accept the fact that they are not in control any longer. Even if they could, they would never admit that 60+ years of Democratic policies have gotten this country absolutely nowhere. The Republican presidents (and the Republican controlled House in those wacky Clinton years) have lead to the only progress that is quantitative and measurable. And, instead of presenting ideas in the hopes of improving America, these political hacks just rant, rave, and oppose anything and everything that is proposed by anyone but them. And they do this for America? Not my America!
This nonsense has really become nauseating. The vitriol spewed by the Left and the all too culpable media is reprehensible. Facts and truth be damned. And what if Karl Rove did this on purpose? He didn't break any laws, so what has he done different from the Democrats? Oh, I know, he has beaten them (like dogs) at their own game. And the powerless Left can't take it.
It is time for every American to demand more from their elected officials (yes, I mean all of you in the blue states) and demand they conduct themselves as professionals (not to mention adults). It is one thing to have differing views. It is an entirely different thing to be obstructionists, especially when there is no 'better alternative' being presented during this obstruction. Politics has become entirely too 'political' and the country is not better for it. But perhaps Karl is having a laugh.

It seems like the Special Prosecutor would have closed the case long ago if Plame wasn't undercover. I think his job is to investigate the crime.
It appears that the New York Times was one group who clamored for a prosecutor, yet they will not let their reporter reveal the source, even though the source has given her immunity to do so.
As for the "undercover" part, she was not a clandestine agent at all. Everyone makes her out to be a James Bond type, which was not true. She was an analyst. However, even if she did need "cover", according to the law that was allegedly broken, she does NOT fall under the criteria of a CIA agent who would be granted that protection at this time.
As for Scott McClellan, the prosectuor asked the White House to refrain from further comment. What he is still investigating could be any number of things. But can anyone prove that it is Karl Rove, considering that the NYT has not revealed their source? More importantly, can anyone prove that he has committed a crime? Not yet, but he is being accused and convicted already. That is where politics come in and that is what people should be leary of.

60+ years of Democratic policies
It has also gotten us entitlement programs that we can never pay for and limitless federal government which I will add (for you tOm) the Republicans have been all too willing to support, especially of late.
The Democratic Party is not the party of old and today it is not the party of ideas as far as I am concerned. Read Senator Zell Miller's books on the subject. He is a lifelong Democrat, so I consider him an expert.
Thanks for reading my blog. Even though I am sure you disagree, diversity does make the world a fun place.
