They can't even keep their pants dry.
40. A shadowy conglomeration is out to kill us. (MIHOP) As I sit in my office today, I hear the whispers of co-workers now utterly convinced our war on terror must continue.
Despite American and British involvement in the Middle East birthing wave after wave of rebel forces, the Bush doctrine is now justified in the minds of millions.

In watching this, what comes to mind is the scene in Star Wars where Obi Wan tells Darth Vader that "if you strike me down I'll become more powerful than you can imagine" (or something to that effect).
I just have visions of Rove as Obi Wan and the Left as Darth Vader in all this. I'm not sure how big a deal it would be if he resigns ... he just goes completely off the radar and collects nice fat consulting and speaking checks while continuing in his role as the President's chief political advisor ...
