I think Howard Dean sums this up best:

"Good news for the White House, not so good news for America,"

Yeah, that's what we need.......more pearls of wisdom from Mr Howard "Yeeeeeehaaaa!!!!" Dean. :roll:

yea.,because saying yeehaw is the worst thing any man could ever do...not to mention that that the entire venue was deafeningly loud due to all the shouting by the people in the audien ce at the exact same time

After months... nay... YEARS of listening to the left drone on and on about how Rove is a traitor and should be tried for treason and hung from a yard-arm and drawn and quartered and on and on and on and on... constantly bashing down anyone who stood up and said "hey waitaminute... was there really a crime here? Did Rove do anything wrong here?"............. It's just nice to be able to say "I told you so"

I don't understand this whole debacle

1. If the name of a CIA operative is classified AND
2. Rove does not have authority to declassify THEN
3. Rove should go to jail AND
4. Robert Novak should be charged with unauthorized receipt of classified material.

The rules on classified information are quite clear.

And I just don't understand what the newspaper had to gain by releasing the name of a CIA operative.

For the same reason that Bush doesn't have charges against him for violating the 4th Amendment with his illegal searching of people's personal effects, namely their phonecalls.

same old story of rich man's/poor man's justice

any ordinary citizen would be in jail without due process, interrogated, and there would be no press conference

You got that right. Just look at the kennedys. oh and don't forget jefferson who got caught red handed on tape taking a bribe. But wait, they don't count. And why is that, you say? They are democrats. Hahahahahhahhaha

I don't care if they're dems or repubs really--I would just like to see more egalitarianism in the justice system. For example, the enron execs--they were found guilty yet they are allowed to stay out of jail on appeal--that doesn't happen with ordinary citizens.

They're not out on appeal. They're out pending sentencing.

A judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit in Houston ordered them set free on bail until a decision is reached on their appeal. --NYTimes

Here is an example in the Enron case where the guilty (and sentenced) are released from jail until an appeal decision is reached.

If by "Freedom", you mean "none", I agree.

If by "American Way", you mean the rich and powerful of this country being allowed to break the law and walk free...yeah, I'll agree with you there too.

I guess it is good news! :thumbsdown:

If the prosecutors had any sort of evidence against him, he would have been charged. Considering that he wasn't, the case against him had to be very weak to non-existant. So it is good news for the American Way. Then again, it's Rove so guilty until proven innocent, right?

I would much rather have Howard Dean screaming like a maniac than have Dubya pissing on the Bill of Rights and taking the national debt and corruption to new levels.

Charge him based on heresay? That would get the indictment laughed out of court and weaken any ondoing investigation.

He didn't ask what a lack of evidence has to do with it...

We can always hope Rove will celebrate by going hunting with Cheney.

Perhaps you would consider joining them?
