To discredit Mr. Wilson's version of the events - basically excitement over discrediting a story vs. forethought as to the implications of publishing Ms. Plame's name. > And if Rove is Bush's right hand man, the architect of his "Empire", his > closest confidant, etc etc.......do you really think he'd do something like > this without both A) knowing the full gravity of what he was doing and B) > getting his boss's approval. > I think Rove operates on his own - that is, I think he assumes implicit agreement from the President and/or specifically doesn't tell the President things The President shouldn't know. The President, on his part, agrees to defend Rove. That's sure what's happening now. I'd like to think that if Rove told the President, "This Wilson is a real a55hole.

Maybe I'm giving him too much credit? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:165959 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
