Karl Rove indicted for perjury, other lying


Crazyhorse1

Recommended Posts

The hammer has finally fallen. Fitz has indicted Karl Rove in the most devastrating blow to the Bush administration thus far. Rove will resign this week when the official annoucement is made. A second jolt to the administration is the inclusion of material from Vice President Cheney's office that throws a negative light on the Vice President's conduct as well.

Thus far, Bush has lost the following cabinet members, top officials, etc. through scandals, hostility, etc.

Ag Sec Ann Veneman

Education Rod Paige

Enegy Sec Spence Abraham

Pres Sec Scott Mc Clellan

Att Gen John Ashcroft

Commerce Sec Don Evans

Sec of Treasure Paul H. O'Oneill

Sec of Housing Martinez

Aids Rove, Wolfowitz, Libby

Clark: the guy who tried to warn the Prez about 911 on the way

Tenet: CIA...the other guy who tried to warn the Prez

CIA Directors John, McLaughlin, Stephen Kappert, Michael Sulick

Sec of Homeland Security Tom Ridge

Health and Human Services Tommy Thompson

Antoni Principi Veterans Affairs

Gayle Norton Interior

Colin Powell

Oh year, Eight retired generals are now speaking out

If I counted friends I could count Russ Limbaugh, Duke Cummingham, Bill Frist, Tom DeLay, Haley Barbour, Jack Abramoff, Ralph Reed. Senator Ney (All indicted or being investigated) and George H.W. Bush, whose columnists are writing columns against his son's policies.

And now old baby cakes bites the dust too. I knew him when.

I am very interested as to what category "scandals, hostility, etc" Colin Powell falls under. If any man has conducted himself in a manner that would demand respect, it is certainly General Powell. I hope his inclusion in that list was an oversight....

This was another crazyhorse hit and run. He knew that he couldn't defend his initial post without looking like a hypocrite and American defeatist...err...wait...That's never stopped him before! What gives, CH1? ;)

Not to worry.

All the people responsible for this indictment will be forced to resign in disgrace, just as soon as the incriminating photographs are leaked. :)

Photographs? I dunno, more likely phone records of every call made to mistresses, sports bookies, etc.

For the 700th time..

I think the moderators must like you for the off season

Where is the friggin link?

I did a search and found: http://news.yahoo.com/s/huffpost/20060514/cm_huffpost/020957

and a couple of other blogs...

But nothing on CNN, Headline News, CBS, NBC, ABC or even PBS?

22 indictments it said on one blog with Rove being one of them.

But I also saw there were 5 witnesses that said Wilson outed his wife...

I say that also. But, I didn't see anything about 5 witnesses outing the wife.

All I saw this morning was the Cheney connection to this, including notes on a op-ed piece by Wilson that Cheney took notes on.

Good Luck with that.

That's like asking Sarge to do the same.

Not Likely

Find the last 3 threads that Sarge didnt return to?

ohhh and:

The defense attorney said he has five witnesses who will testify that Wilson told them his wife worked for the CIA. The defense team believes such testimony will show that her status was well-known.

(its bloggable also)...

CNN Headline news said he's facing perjury charges and talked about Cheney's scribbles on a Wilson column in the Washington Post...

It is incredible how little play this is getting

The whole thing was barely a blip on the radar until Wilson's piece a few days after the original piece came. "Did the White House expose an undercover CIA officer?" or some nonsense like that

Powell is hostile to the Bush administration because of the bad intel he was fed for the UN speach...calls it the lowest point of his career.

Misunderstood it as an attack on Powell personally

Although I am a conservative, and at times grow weary of the national sport of "Bush Bashing" -- at least people sometimes come up with a coherent argument as to why they think he is satan. And.....again, as a card-carrying conservative.......I have my own issues with the man (I am hardly a blind backer of the Bush administration)

However, Colin Powell is unquestionably one of America's contemporary heroes. He has shown an abundance of character throughout his career while dealing with situations that most Americans would run from.

It's a family weekend. Mother's day. I am an anti-neocon. Their defeats are my victories. When I come around to believing that there should be the permanent majority of one party and that one party should achieve hegemony over the whole world, I'll let you know. Here's a guess: that one party I might someday believe in (if I'm insane) probably won't consist mostly of white devils who have murdered over thirty million of my people since 1492 and practice ritualistic cannabalism/vampirism of their Lord in churches in the present as well as in the near past threw jews into ovens and blacks into slavery.

SO Powell, having been teh Chairman of the Joints Chiefs, was unable to obtain and/or draw conclusions about intel.

How did the man ever get to be a four star general?

As far as Rove is concerned, the 5 witnesses are irrelevant. The charges against him are lying to investigators and lying to the grand jury, not treason. It's not clear yet whether or not he's also been charged with obstruction of justice. I think only an obstruction of justice conviction would result in an automation jail term. I

It's not expected to get playing time on the major networks until the announcement is made by Fritz later this week. This out is a true scoop by Truth Out. The letter to Rove advising him to get his things in order was leaker, ironically, by Rove, who told the Prez and Bolton...and apparently others.

So basically you are saying that not only is your mental status questionable, you are also a racist. Niiiiice. :rolleyes:
