How the hell is KARL ROVE going to spin this one? I mean, you do remember when the President said that he would fire anyone that was leaking classified information?
I have already seen the crafty General ROVE’s handiwork in the daily papers…
“BUSH APPROVED LEAK”, and further into the article it says that, “BUSH DID NOT AUTHORIZE LEAK”. So the early spin is that the President didn’t tell SCOOTER LIBBY to leak the classified info to the press, but he still co-signed it after the fact. Anyhow you spin this story it still smells skanky.
The bottom line is that the President put American lives at risk, in a malicious way. Not by sending troops into the desert under false pretenses, which was selfish. Not by sending the troops to battle without the proper safety equipment, which was silly. But by compromising one of the keys to our national security which is our intelligence network. It was an unnecessary and despicable gesture from the White House. No one was killed directly because of it, but it displayed the lowest level of moral judgement from the President.
I don’t even think that Emperor Palpatine GEORGE BUSH Sr. would stoop that low. Senior BUSH was once a member of the intelligence network and I bet he would have had more respect for those professionals than his seed can muster. Running roughshod over the Constitution is one thing, but this situation brings to mind the one thing that will never be gangsta… snitching. KARL ROVE needs to buy G DUBBZ a ‘Stop Snitching’ t-shirt.
My KARL ROVE = GENERAL GRIEVOUS analogy works like this… GRIEVOUS was a bad azz that could fight multiple Jedi simultaneously. He had four arms and each one wielded a lightsaber independently. KARL ROVE has to fight off scandals the same way. While BUSH is being haraunged for his illegal wiretaps DICK CHENEY is shooting people in the face. GRIEVOUS was eventually overwhelmed, but that was well after the damage had been done.
If I were y’all I would brush up on my ‘Star Wars’ chronology. It looks to me like we are still in Episode I. That means the ‘Return of the Jedi’ is a loooooooong way off.
Couldn’t agree more. This leak thing seems like it could be the last straw and I wouldn’t even count on it to be supported by the most ardent NASCAR fans. You simply can’t justify snitching as the denizens of any hip-hop show will attest.
Here’s an article from my Cowtown regarding on the impact of snitching from last year:

At best, this White House is ready for some serious house cleaning and Cheney is armed so it’s should be Rove who goes.
Tony,
That’s a good point.
Do you think that its time for General Grievous to finally go?
To save the 2006 G.O.P. ballot?
I think that BUSH needs ROVE too much to let him go.
I can hear him in the Oval office, “I wish I could quit you!”
you said bush sr would have more respect for intelligence professionals. scratch that, bush sr WROTE the law that bush jr broke
