WASHINGTON — The Senate Democratic leader said Sunday that presidential adviser Karl Rove (search) should resign because of his role in exposing an undercover CIA officer, and a veteran Republican senator said President Bush needs "new blood" in his White House. Rove has not been charged, but he continues to be investigated in the CIA leaks case that brought the indictment and resignation Friday of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby (search), an adviser to Bush and the top aide to Vice President Dick Cheney. Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald has not made a decision on whether Rove gave false testimony during his four grand jury appearances. Rove is Bush's most trusted adviser. Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid (search) said he is disappointed that Bush and Cheney responded to the indictment by lauding Libby and suggested they should apologize for the leak that revealed the identity of covert CIA officer Valerie Plame. "First of all, the vice president issues this very terse statement praising Libby for all the great things he's done," Reid said. "Then we have the president come on camera a few minutes later calling him Scooter and what a great patriot he is. There has not been an apology to the American people for this obvious problem in the White House," Reid, D-Nev., told ABC's "This Week."

Relax, Harry- you're gonna give yourself another stroke.
Obviously Harry must have some information that we don't have...since last time I checked they hadn't been indicted for anything. Of course if he does have such information, then perhaps we need an investigation into just how such privileged Grand Jury testimony made it into old Harry's hands... But then maybe that's just me...
Good point.
I call on Harry Reid to resign over his racist comments about Justice Thomas.
Bush should apologize for the Democrats endless fraudulent campaign of personal destruction, and the untold damage their corruption has done to our national security? Why, it only seems fair, doesn't it?
Senator Reid should resign because he has never demonstrated ANY common sense, is incapable of connecting two thoughts to reach a logical conclusion, and is leading the democrates into extinction......
oh, wait.....he can stay.
Note to President Bush: DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT respond to anything Dingy Harry says. The libnuts are attempting to make this indictment out to be the crime of the century, why "even worse than Watergate, Maude!".
PyongyangOnline (aol)has on its welcome screen right now a glaring headline, "Bush asked to Apologize" by Dingy Harry. Of course, we breathlessly await the results of what the 14 year French children and American citizens who DON'T VOTE think of President Bush. NOT!
Nah. I'd prefer that Reid resigned.
Reid should have handed in his resignation a long time ago.
I wonder what they would unearth if they did an investigation on him?
I want a yacht.
It amazes me how Dem after Dem is getting on TV and announcing that how serious a crime they consider obstruction of justice and giving false statements. Now that Clinton is out of office, that is.
Ya, well, ASOC wants Reid to resign (F'n RINO)
(F'n = fun loving)
Well, how does it feel to want?
I want Kerry to sign the SF 180 and release ALL of his military records. I want Ted Kennedy to be run out the Senate on a rail. I want Clinton to go down in history as the crookedest President ever (OK, so I may get 1 out of 3)
As we can see we have been made fools of. Thinking that we were supporting real American Republican Senators when Lott makes his hooded sheet position known as he supports the left-wing fascist democrats, against our President, and gives pleasure to the left wing anti-American media.
"Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald has not made a decision on whether Rove gave false testimony during his four grand jury appearances."
Huh. I guess the AP's decided that Fitzgerald is the prosecuter, judge and jury.
Anyway, the story is a lie. It's clear Fitzgerald has wrapped up. He has not Grand Jury.
It's all over but the (DNC/MSM's) lying.
