Attention, AP: wishful thinking on your part does not a news story make.

I love how they had to go to a lieutenant governor in Arkansas do get the negative comment.

If Bush forces Rove out the door, I will lose much respect for our President. I don't expect this to happen, but if he gives into the partisan attacks and actually gets rid of Rove, imagine what type of nominees we will get for the Supreme Court. I hope and expect President Bush to stand by his morals, his convictions, and his friends. If he doesn't, watch out! The Supreme Court is next.

The GOP officials, speaking on condition of anonymity to avoid looking disloyal...

Seeing as it's an AP story, I'd be more inclined to believe the anonymity is to avoid admitting they're really democrat staffers.-

Bush's Problems Has Republicans Worried
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/n/a/2005/06/15/national/w053640D98.DTL
Wednesday, June 15, 2005
AP's RON FOURNIER in the San Francisco Chronicle

Fearing that President Bush's political problems may become their own, Republicans in Congress and elsewhere are beginning to yearn for the good old days of seven months ago, when he had somebody to run against.





Special Interest Groups Lose on Filibuster

Wednesday, May 25, 2005
AP's RON FOURNIER in the Austin American-Statesman

The right got winged, liberals lost and Republican Leader Bill Frist had his Senate powers hijacked. The agreement to allow yes-or-no votes on some of President Bush's stalled judicial nominations produced other losers, a few winners — and many in-betweens. Did the president come out ahead? Sen. John McCain? Did the GOP or the Democratic Party gain the upper hand? Has moderation seized the Senate?




Dean still says DeLay may deserve jail

AP's RON FOURNIER in the Kansas City Star

Democratic Party chairman Howard Dean, who famously refused to prejudge Osama bin Laden's guilt, is standing by his judgment that House Majority Leader Tom DeLay may deserve jail time for allegations of corruption.



Analysis: Iraq Shadows Bush's Inaugural
http://www.twincities.com/mld/twincities/news/nation/10692013.htm
Thursday, January 20, 2005
AP's RON FOURNIER in the St. Paul Pioneer Press

Not a word on Iraq. President Bush's inaugural address contained 2,000 words of passion and promise for his second term, but no direct mention of the war that could sink it.

Ron Fournier was the winner in the print category in 1998 for his dispatches on President Clinton's knee injury that sent him to the hospital in the middle ofthe night.

Still, several top GOP officials — including some White House advisers — said the fight was becoming a distraction to Bush's agenda.

Fournier says this...then quotes a Republican candidate for Lt. Gov from ARKANSAS. BWA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA! What a freakin' idiot.

Who's nervous about this? Sounds like wishful thinking.

Guess they'll dig up Dan Blather next to declare that, even if false the charge is SERIOUS and must be pursued. Hic

AP and the rest of the legacy media think the GOP is in trouble. They still can't find ONE lie Karl Rove told or ONE law he's broken. No wonder they're full of bitterness and rage and they hope Republicans will do their dirty work for them. Its raw partisan politics at its worst.

If I was a campaign manager for a Republican, I would get Karl Rove to come stand next to my candidate as soon as possible for a fundraiser photo. When KR comes out smelling like a rose, he will attain political rockstar status, and he and the Prez will remember those that stuck up for him.

"The extreme left is once again attempting to define the modern Democratic Party by rabid partisan attacks, character assassination and endless negativity," said Rep. Tom Reynolds, R-N.Y., chairman of the GOP congressional committee.

Geez, dude, SHUT UP. These kinds of statements help the Dems, by pointing out what they're doing wrong. What's that? They're too stupid to listen? OK, never mind.

The only thing I'm nervous about right now is that the Dems will drop the Rove thing before they get burned by another non-scandal that they foisted.

"I think he should resign," said Jim Holt, a GOP state senator from Arkansas

WOW! What a ground-swell of republican opposition to Rove. One state senator from Arkansas.

They couldn't even find ONE republican in Washington who would support this?

Ah, yes, the non endorsement of Rove by the President included having Rove smiling confidently prominently seated behind the President. Is the AP not "nuanced" to understand the symbolism?

The writer should switch to selling novels, might be more successful.

Hmmm, sounds like the Pubs are getting "brave"? Of course!.......the outspokeness is against one of their own. If only they would fight the Demonrats with the same way. The only time we see this is when the MSM beads in on another Republican.......then the daggers come out. Shameful!
