Howl, check your freepmail

[Howlin]

So has the Cooper/Time/Grunwald/Hillary relationship.

[Howlin]

No..just says "Karl Rove needs to resign" about 500 times and you'll be up to speed.

[AliVeritas]

For real? Have proof? Post please. Thanks.

[kcvl]

bttt

[Shqipo]

Bingo! Would pay anything to have some honest reporter stick this down his throat next time he calls for Rove's resignation.

[OXENinFLA]

Will this presser w/ Wilson be on C-span3?

[defconw]

Because IMO the pubbies know that the people that count, namely us, don't believe the Rats. Why dignify it, plus picking on the woman will not do the Administration or the Party any good, they would be portrayed as bullies.

[RandallFlagg]

Heh! Figures.
Thanks.

[Howlin]

Oh, I imagine that one will be on ALL the channels......even if somebody big dies, they'll still show this one........LOL.

I can't wait to see what President Bush has at the end of this rope -- he's sure letting enough of it out and now Upchuck has grabbed on to it, too! I can see the President and Karl Rove sitting in the White House laughing themselves silly because they know how this is all going to turn out!

[Howlin]

Wouldn't you just love to hear him say "Up your nose with a rubber hose."

[ken5050]

We might actually see the WP do some real honest journalism here on this story. The ONE thing they'd like to do more than embarass Rove is to embarass the New York Times..

[ohioWfan]

But when Nancy Pelosi gets out there and says that Rove should be fired because he outted a covert CIA agent and endangered her life (as she said yesterday), why doesn't a Republican from Congress get right out there and just say calmly that Valerie Plame was no longer undercover?

I don't think it's dignifying the charge by denying it immediately whenever it's leveled.

[OXENinFLA]

But I don't have a TV......I'm at work.

shhhhhhhh Don't tell anyone here though.

[kcvl]

Wouldn't you just love to hear him say "Up your nose with a rubber hose."

You know me. I would like him to say something even worse. lol!

[ohioWfan]

Looks like they're laughing outside the White House too. :)

[Howlin]

Which, of course, is exactly why you're not in an elected office.

[defconw]

Well Tom DeLay did call the Rats sharks yesterday and frankly we are all upset but the Republican leadership in both houses plus the White House is frankly laughing about the whole thing. They are not worried in the least, this is just more stuff to use against them in 06 and 08.

It is maddening, but you "don't murder someone who is busy committing suicide."
