Of course, lots of folks are calling for Karl Rove’s hide up on the barn door. He’s gotta go if he did as alleged, because it’s an egregious breach of national security. Unfortunately, here’s what President Bush said about the leak back in the fall of ’03:
There are too many leaks of classified information in Washington. If there’s leaks out of my administration, I want to know who it is, and if the person has violated the law, the person will be taken care of.
See what I mean? “Taken care of,” it says. And since every doofus who has screwed up in this administration has been promoted, there is no hope. It just remains to be seen how Rove moves up. And here’s my prediction: Alberto R. “Gitmo” Gonzales to the US Supreme Court, Karl Rove to Attorney General.
You read it here first.
