...except that Armatage is the one who gave out her name and Colin Powel was the first in the Admin to know. Why then should Rove have been forced to leave? Oh, oh, oh oh, sorry, I forgot. It is the CHARGE that counts, not facts or evidence. Sorry, I will do better WASHINGTON — Columnist Robert Novak said publicly for the first time Tuesday that White House political adviser Karl Rove was a source for his story outing the identity of CIA officer Valerie Plame. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,203051,00.html

I guess that's the Reader's Digest version of the facts but that they are summarized as "hard to call" is my point. You don't execute someone for "hard to call".

I agree, accountability in a lesser form. This is from the Free Kenneth Foster website linked in the OP. "....After the second robbery, Dillard would testify nearly four years later, Foster wanted to stop. Foster asked Dillard to convince Steen and Brown, because Dillard knew them better and Foster thought they would dismiss his own hesitation. The four drove on, looking for a club Foster wanted to check out on the way home – but he got lost north of downtown, and wound up on a dark road in an unfamiliar neighborhood, driving behind two cars. Thinking the cars might be headed to a party, Foster continued behind them, until they pulled into a driveway leading up to a darkened house. Foster drove a short distance more before turning around. When the four passed the house again, they were surprised to see a woman standing at the foot of the long driveway, gesturing to them. Brown wanted to stop and check things out – especially the young woman. "Kenneth [Foster] had stopped and Julius [Steen] rolled his window down. And she was ... like, 'Well, why the hell are you following us?'" Brown testified. "And Julius was like, 'We wasn't following you.' ... She started cussing at Julius. And Julius said, 'I am not trying to hear you,' and he rolled up the window," Brown continued. "While she was walking away, she was like, 'Well, you all just like what you all see. Take a picture, it will last longer,'" he said. "I wanted more than a picture, I wanted her number. So, I got out of the car." Indeed, as Steen rolled up his window, Foster started to drive away, he said, and had to stop quickly when Brown's door opened. The three men waited in the car while Brown followed the woman, later identified as Mary Patrick, up the driveway – more than 80 feet away from Foster's car. Then, Foster said, he heard a gunshot: "I sprung up [and] hit the gas – it was more reflexive than anything else," he recalled, as Brown ran back to the car. "[Brown] gets in the car [and we say], 'Hey man, what happened?' He was catatonic." Foster drove away. There are several different accounts of what happened in the driveway, but undisputed is that the encounter left one person dead. Patrick's boyfriend, Michael LaHood Jr., who had apparently been standing near his car when Brown made it to the top of the drive, had been shot through the head at close range. LaHood lay dead, face down on the concrete driveway outside his parents' home. Within an hour, police arrested Foster, Dillard, Steen, and Brown."

You would honestly equate that with this.. A Guy Drives his buddies around where at Several times they get out of the car, Rob People and then INTENTIONALLY Kill someone?? Is the guy driving the getaway car also guilty of Bank robbery?? He is actively participating in the crime. I don’t see much difference here. Where does it say that they were driving around intentionally planning to kill someone? Rob? Yes. Bust him for that and throw him in jail but killing him because of what the other guy did, and was executed for, is f'd up. In the scenario I posted, you know that driving under the influence is illegal so does that make you an equal accomplice for letting your buddy do it? Or did he make the decision to drive that weapon home on his own?

So, next time a friend of yours downs a few beers with you, drives home and gets busted for a DUI or kills someone, then you'll have no problem going to jail and sharing a manslaughter charge with him?

We could have use guys like you on Libby's jury, or better yet, the Iran/Contra investigation!!!! Guilt through association! Fuck 'em all!!!! I'll remember this the next time you try to defend.....oh......anyone. What should happen to Bush and Cheney, then? How many dead in Iraq due to their actions? I've always thought that the Hague was the best idea. Shows accountability and gets those warmongering freeloaders off the public dole when they retire.

Bush is a lame duck and he's already perfected the "lie and deny" tactic sufficiently to make it through the end of his term. There's nothing left for Rove to do except write a book and very quietly consult with Fred Thompson's gang. Just a hunch on the latter.

That's f'd up.

Because they are there now, thanks to us. Fresh new ones too. The old guard is still where it has been for the last six years. That's the great thing about Bush's war policy. It's self fulfilling.

Yep, and you are leading the pack Thanks for noticing. I've offered to include you but you don't seem to want to listen. Here, maybe you'll pay attention to this guy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BEsZMvrq-I

How about a Gravel/Paul ticket? And I'm only half kidding. I'm voting write-in for Knotts/Conway ticket Don and Tim? I could go for that. We deserve it

Make it quick. I get the impression that if he doesn't like what he hears that you won't get much in after that.

It took a while but now you get it! I'll agree, it's all the media's fault. If they hadn't been so damn lazy, forgotten how to think/remember/question, and resigned themselves to vomiting repetitive talking points so they didn't get their press passes yanked, we wouldn't have gotten into this mess. All of the information was and still is there. But only a very few were looking at it.

This place has the best prices of anywhere I've seen. We used them for hardwood flooring, decking, and stair treads when we were building our house. http://www.lumberliquidators.com/home.jsp

I'll second that. And you can find it cheaper Here

BEER!!!!!!

I still see that. And I still fail to understand. It's a waste of material, looks silly, and what are you going to do when you have to jump out of the way of the mad swooper? That's why you never see Ninjas saggin'

More toward the CENTER?? Only in the D's minds.... No. I know some "I's" who think the same way. But I understand your viewpoint. When the debate is as limited as it is it's easy to think that it represents the entire spectrum.

well, some grossly uneducated, probably home schooled types do think so http://www.dropzone.com/cgi-bin/forum/gforum.cgi?post=2910861#2910861 Just to throw in a couple of points, I'm not sure how the threads got crossed but errico was actually replying to rushmc's comments. And I think errico's made a valid point with regard to the R's and D's. They're both really the same party. If you look at the party spectrum, then zoom out until you can see the "L", you'll see both D and R occupying a narrow band, with the D's more towards the center.

Not all of us have that attitude. Only a very vocal minority, our "bring 'em on President" and those on this forum who are bucking for the job as al Qaeda poster child of the year.

I wouldn't put the requirement in that the Pres has to have had prior service, but I'd have no problem making it mandatory for the Sec of Def.

Good advice for Christians.
