Perhaps Karl Rove should be questioned in connection with that case in Aruba. Who knows? The Dims might just get lucky. I mean they don't have to actually question him, just ask the questions and provide the answers like they're already doing.

Never mind that Rove isn't even a target of the special prosecutor's investigation. New York Sen. Chuck Schumer and other Democrats want him fired anyway.

Yeah. Socialist dictators get off on that kind of stuff. "Off with his head!"

And worst of all is FoxNews.com, still the lead political story "Bush: If Crime Committed, Staffer Will Go."

Geez, they're getting to be as bad as the Clinton News Network. Zip it, already!

I've been yelling at them for a week over this - Brit seemed to have the only comprehensive discussion.

You got that right. Fox News is becoming MSM at a fast rate. Brit is sighting a poll that says President Bush trust is taking a hit. It took Mort to shoot the ABC poll down.

...the liberal Democrats on Capitol Hill, still unable to get over the 2000 and 2004 elections, ...

And there is the crux of the matter. There has been a steady drumbeat, part of a larger strategy to get the Dems back in power, even before the 2000 election was settled by the courts. That drumbeat is a steady mantra of madeup accusations against Republicans in general and Bush specifically. Although Bush can't run again they fear him as a campaigner for others.

A knowledgeable Freeper said shortly after the election that what the Democrats were doing was from the Communists playbook in Eastern Europe shortly after the fall of the USSR and free elections in Eastern Europe. If the Communists were upset in a election despite their efforts to fix it, they would immediately contest the election, demanding recounts, etc. If they lost there they would mount a steady attack on the legitimacy of the the winners and continue with all sorts of accusations until the next election with hopes of regaining power. The left's playbook is so old as to be predictable.

The Dems first withheld the transition money so that when Bush was finally in office he had to start from scratch putting together a team and staff. They also planted loyal moles in the FBI, CIA, and the State Department, other departments too but those especially, often putting political appointees into jobs covered by Civil Service so they couldn't easily be removed.

We are seeing the results of that now. Keeping the Democrats out of office is the most important thing the lovers of this country can do. If those crooks return to power all else is meaningless.

Volumes upon volumes have been written on this subject by legions upon legions of writers.

No offense to anyone, but it's kind of like watching five thousand sharks go after a thimble full of chum.

"Andropov said, wisely, 'Now all we have to do is to keep the Vietnam-era anti-Americanism alive.'”

From a National Review article by Ion Mihai Pacepa.


This phrase applies to EVERYTHING that has happened since....well, everything bad that has been done/said in my lifetime by the libs.

I don't know if anyone else has pointed this out yet but...
You know how all the Dims are whining that Bush changed from saying he'd fire anyone "involved" to now anyone who committed a "crime"?(specifically I saw a clip of Reid yesterday, in which btw, he seemed really stoned, don't know what was wrong with him)
Well we could just as usual write it off as their normal idiocy and partisan crap.. But I see it differently.

Yes the President changed the wording. But my question is, if no one ends up being convicted of a "crime" is there really a "leak" for someone to have been "involved" in? I mean we already know she wasn't a covert operative within 5 years of her "outing." So we basically no that there was no crime committed. So why should Rove still be fired for "involvement" in a "leak." If the facts stand, as they seem to today, I don't think it was a "leak" was it?

Let me know if this makes sense to anyone.

I am back and the link you provided to National Review outlines exactly the point I was making, except it is from the horse's mouth, the KGB. When you read things like that it is easy to recognize them happening everyday right here in the USA.

Rigging and stealing elections is also a Communist forte. I worry about these new electronic voting machines. First clue was the 2000 elections and the hanging chad debacle. To insist that a punch card was too difficult to use was absurd on its face. Then when the Diebol machines were introduced they immediately accused the Republicans of rigging them because the owner of Diebol had contributed to the Republicans. Being keenly aware of the Democrats habit of projection I was immediately alerted that rigging the machines was exactly what Hillary intended to do. It would only need be done in a few key spots around the country. Once there was suspicion plus the time it would take to mobilize an effort to examine the machines all the dirty work could be undone and covered.

We are facing a ruthless and unprincipled enemy. I talking about the Dems, not the terrorists.
