Rove won't be fired or apologize

[Sandpiper]

Sadly, my friends, that's the difference between the GOP and us.

Their guys don't apologize no matter how wrong they are.

Our guys apologize even when they're right.

1. Frankly, I'm surprised the Dems are even demanding his apology

I'm glad to hear it, but I'm still surprised.

8. To me it's more like a way

to get rove's remarks in the news..and answer him on his allegations.

I don't think they actually think for one minute that the roverat is going to apologize or be fired.

12. I agree...it's just unusual to see them even push back this way

2. The downside of "majority rule"

3. Exactly, when will we ever learn!

4. The real difference between us and the GOP?

Durbin's comment turned into top news. Rove's comment hardly registers a blip in the media.

5. Who gets fired?

Name ONE PERSON Ratface has fired in all his six thousand years in the White House (as an illegal squatter, I might add). Just one.

Fucking George Tenet got a goddamned MEDAL, for pete's sake. And he did EVERYTHING wrong before he RESIGNED.

6. Bush, Rove, Cheney.... none of them are STATESMEN.

Don't you miss the old days?

7. Even better that way

That way we can show what a piece of garbage Rove is and how hypocritical Republicans are after they went through all that brouhaha about Durbin.

[ComerPerro]

9. Yeah, but that's why we should demand an apology

10. Rove will be painted as a manly man tough guy

With all the interviews he is giving it is as if he is testing the waters for a White House run.

[edbermac]

11. I think Rove should be flogged...

Only problem is, he might like it...

[SlavesandBulldozers]

13. No. That's two things they never do.

In Reich Wing world a PR disaster like this gets you promoted. Apologize? For what? Talking like a confederate pig-fucking hillbilly? That's their stock in trade, why would they apologize for THAT?!!
