I agree with just about everything you said, except for the insinuation that Rove or the Bushies are pushing it. I see exactly the opposite.

I assure you that I do not think that Rove is pushing this. That was not my point. I was commenting on some of our friends in this thread, who are too full of it. The explosive growth of this thread is my evidence that some would like to push it. My advice is to our friends, here, at Free Republic.

Karl Rove, to me, has become pure and total liability. I have no interest whatsoever in giving him advice, free or otherwise.

Again, my comments were intended to get people, here, to see the points on which you and I agree.

You keep talking in generalities but have yet to point to ANY evidence that the GOP or Rove are behind this.

And you are forgetting that Chris Lehane is behind this. Do you know who he is? Do you know what he's been doing for 2 weeks with this story? Maybe your a little behind on the updates; we'll be happy to fill you in.

For one party to carp on the private indiscretions of individuals in the other party, appears to be a cheap shot--along the lines of those hypocrites who continued to stone fallen women, after being admonisthed, "Let he who is innocent, cast the first stone."

I agree with you both...even if the scandal was first pushed by Democrats, the "storyline" now is that it was leaked by a conservative (Matt Drudge) - and if it keeps going, the storyline will be that it's a GOP dirty trick, and the GOP is pushing it because Bush can't beat Kerry on the issues.

We don't need to go there again.
