The Democratic Effort to Get Karl Rove Fired Is a Very Nice Ploy
Bush seems constitutionally unable to give in or to agree to anything that the Democrats want him to do. The result is that Democrats like Kerry and H Clinton are getting Bush's back up and leading him to take a hardline approach.

I want Karl Rove to stay as long as possible. As long as he's in his current job, the administration will be hounded mercilessly and there will be more opportunity for perjury and spinoff scandals. Once he quits, the pressure immediately lets up.

I want Rove in the White House issuing denial after denial. That's the best chance to get the Bush administration deeper in trouble. JMHO.

3. the pressure shouldn't let up with rove's departure
he's not the only leaker, nor do we know what the president knew & when he knew it.

which, being this president, he didn't know shit.

4. That's Right, and the Second Leaker May be More Important
No matter who it is, it shows a coordinated effort. The story has got to stay live until then.
