During his tour of the Sunday shows this morning, Karl Rove attempted to downplay and dismiss his role in the CIA leak scandal, telling Fox News’ Chris Wallace that he acted benignly in his conversations with reporters about Valerie Plame’s identity:
What I did say to one reporter was, I’ve heard that, too. And what I said to another reporter, off the record, was, in essence, I don’t think you ought to be writing about this.
Appearing on Meet The Press today, Matthew Cooper, one of the reporters to whom Rove spoke about Plame, said Rove’s version of the story was hard to believe. “I think he was dissembling to put it charitably,” said Cooper. “To imply that he didn’t know about [Plame's identity], or that he heard it in some rumor out in the hallways, is nonsense.”
Cooper also contradicted Rove’s characterization of their conversation, describing the “essence” of it as much more than just an attempt to wave him off the story:
Look, Karl Rove told me about Valerie Plame’s identity on July 11, 2003. I called him because Ambassador Wilson [Plame's husband] was in the news that week. I didn’t know Ambassador Wilson even had a wife until I talked to Karl Rove and he said that she worked at the agency and she worked on WMD.
Watch it:
Cooper’s right. Rove is peddling “non-sense” with his brushed off description of his role in the leak scandal. On Meet The Press, Rove also declared, “if a journalist had said to me, ‘I’d like you to confirm this,’ my answer would have been ‘I can’t, I don’t know, I’ve heard that too,’”
But as Cooper notes, Rove not only confirmed to him that Plame worked at the CIA, but he willingly pushed the information to him without it even being solicited, telling him that she “works at the agency on wmd [weapons of mass destruction] issues.”
When pressed by Wallace about his conversation with Cooper, however, Rove resorted to the administration’s standard line when asked about inconvenient facts: “I don’t recall.”
UPDATE: Crooks and Liars has more on Rove’s Meet the Press appearance here and here.
UPDATE II: Marcy Wheeler, who wrote a book about the Plame scandal, debunks Rove’s Meet the Press claims here.
Nice try, Karl.

the fascism you live under can open your mail, freeze and seize your bank accounts, enter and search your house without a warrant and without telling you. it also makes sure you can’t declare bankruptcy if and when your medical bills drag you down or your home is foreclosed on.
the facism you live under also insists that you respect it, or it will seize your property. and if you want to complain, you’d better do it in a “free speech zone”, or you’ll be detained without the legal rights YOU WERE BORN WITH.
pretty soon, the fascist you live under will draft your children against their will (not YOUR will, you obviously support the administration’s war) to die in the desert for an illegal war. and if you complain, you’re a traitor.

Liberator,
Are you such an idiot that you forget the importance of dissent and disagreement as fundamental aspects of this country you so love? Do you not undertstand the 1st Amendment protects such thought and action? This is precisely why Rove and Cheney and others are facists: they disregard the principles of democracy in favor of what THEY believe is best for THEIR interests. You sir, are a facists too! Your inane conservative line calling for dissenters to “get out” is so tired and transparently meaningless that it is now a running joke. Rove is the anti-Christ…really, he is.

Yes, No, Yes, voted against Republicans all my life.
There ya go, answers. Suck on it.
August 19th, 2007 at 3:16 pmObviously Rove is zooming around the Plame leak. He’s a media guy. He knows there is no such thing as “off the record”.
August 19th, 2007 at 3:17 pmI think he’s told himself his own version so many times for so long, he doesn’t know it isn’t the truth anymore. You’d have to give him a regimen of electric shock and truth serum to get the real facts, which we have anyway. I sure like the electric shock idea, though. About 40kv is a good, round number dontcha think?

Doubt isn’t what’s important. He asks for proof of obvious facts & things that have been debated & proven before. Therefore he should meet the same standard. But he doesn’t.

For you to have given the US Navy 5 years of your life during the 1960’s, that would mean you were 18 during the 60’s, meaning that now, you’d be almost 70.
You are not almost 70.
I’m not even sure if you’re almost 17.
But one things for sure.
The only service you’ve ever given to the Navy, or any other branch of the US Military, is lip service.

August 19th, 2007 at 3:25 pmLiberator,
How are Cheney, Rove, and Bush brave? Cheney deferred military service five times; Rove, that fat-ass never served; and Bush, his miliatry record is a joke! Funny, you folks call liberals weak and cowardly, but please go through the present adminstration’s members and give me their brave, strong exploits…could you do that for me? As a military officer in Iraq said last week, if they want to fight Iran so bad, let them put on a F****** uniform and fight! Guys like Addington and Rove, the ochestrators of the Iraq war, never fought or served, but they talk tough. I suppose Wesley Clark is a wuss too.

August 19th, 2007 at 3:30 pmIs Rove really a genius or are we, as a people, incredibly stupid?
Consider the facts: Rove looked at this country and made a bet with himself that he could pick a Chimpanzee and make him President. Not only that, the Chimpanzee could screwup his first term and he, Rove, could still get the Chimp re-elected to a Second Term. And that he, an atheist, could use the religious-freaks to do it.
And he did. Oh, how he did.
Maybe Rove is no genius but, against the canvas of an uninformed, media-manipulated, advertisement-jingle conditioned American people, he might as well be one.

But despite people like YOU, who want to see America fail, we will win and the Islamofascists in the Mid East and their Liberal partners over here know it!

Please, answer my question: Have Rove, Addington, Cheney, Bush, Rice, or any other senior administration official either (a) served in the active duty Armed Forces or (b) actually fought in a conflict? Are you calling ordering soldiers to do your dirty work bravery? Not only do I have a right, but by extension I have a duty, to call their decisions into question. And that is why they are facists: by definition, they want single-party, single-minded control of our governmental decisions.

August 19th, 2007 at 3:52 pmMichael, you still haven’t responded to my primary questions. But since you picked the low hangin fruit, let me respond back. Publishing pictures of prisoner abuse is exposing gross human rights violations; secret renditioning of suspected terrorists is a violation of other nations sovereignty, something we wouldn’t want do to us; and exposing a program that secretly listens in on American citizens is encouraged by the Constitution and our history.
As for Durbin’s comments, they were hyperbolic and unnecessary, and no, I don’t agree with them. However, Kerry’s comments were — surprisingly — true! Have you not followed the miliatry trials of the soldiers who raped, murdered, dissembled, and the such in several cases?

Only a very small percentage of democracy has to do with voting. Last I checked, Iraqis can vote, as can lots of other folks in S. America, Asia, and Eastern Europe, though I wouldn’t call their countries very democratic.
And still, you have not answered for the lack of miliatry service by the Bush administration. Virtually none were ever in the miliatry; and none served in an armed conflict. And yet, they can talk tough about service.
And you still haven’t answered for Wesley Clark’s dissent.

It is pretty damn clear that Dick Cheney and GW lied to the American people over the war in Iraq. They used false evidence in the form of the Niger documents to lie America into a war which it had previously rejected under Bill Clinton, for lack of suffecient evidence.
Of course, you trolls will jump up and down and say “But Bill Clinton…” and expect us to take this as credible. Bill, was wrong but he didn’t fake the facts to fit his policy, GW did.

If you truly believe you are winning this battle, you are more bush-like than I thought. Ya know, bush thinks he is winning also – but he is not. So again, you are in similar ‘alternate realities’ that of your monarch. It still makes you seem pathetic and foolish, but maybe that is the best you can do. Sigh…
August 19th, 2007 at 4:00 pmHow we know that these documents were the responsibility of the Republican party was through the outing of Valerie Plame as revenge. Had it been a simple mistake, Valerie Plame’s CIA ties would still be unknown to us today.
Of course, you will counter by saying Scooter was found guilty of perjury and obstruction of justice, and that is where it ended. We will point out that justice, was obstructed and Scooter wasn’t lying for the fun of it. Further, Scooter himself was not particularly hard hit by the scandal, given that he hasn’t had to serve any jail time for it.
August 19th, 2007 at 4:00 pmHow can you make anyone look stupid when you only post stupid questions?

August 19th, 2007 at 4:01 pmMichael,
1. How is Iraq a win for the United States?
2. How is it ever going to be a win for us?
And don’t duck the questions by asking others. Answer them.
Or don’t you have an answer.
This is the most ill-conceived foreign policy clusterf*&k in the history of the nation done for either greed or revenge, or more likely, both.
And for the record, this President is a contemptible fool, and a lying gutless punk.
Just ask Valerie Plame.
“I’ll take care of anybody who was involved” he bleated. Little did we realize he mean he’d take very good care of the people involved. Get this straight:
He knowingly violated the Intelligence Identities Protection Act, for nothing more than petty partisan political gain, and to get his war. He let Libby fall on his sword and then commuted the sentence. He protected everyone else in the administration involved by claiming ‘unitary executive privilege’, a phrase I can’t seem to find anywhere in the damned Constitution.
He’s surrounded by people who will wrap themselves in the flag, thump loudly on a bible and call you ‘traitor’ if you question their obvious foolishness.
Following idiotic policy blindly isn’t Patriotism.

Just another weekend at Michael’s house… naked male pyramids.
August 19th, 2007 at 4:02 pmMichael, you have no answer to my questions, do you? Would you take orders from a group of folks, telling you to go into harms way, who never served?
August 19th, 2007 at 4:03 pmOr I could have run off to Canada like I guess some of your relatives did?
Comment by michael
August 19th, 2007 at 4:03 pmThe point is michael, is that you use the fact that you served in the Navy during a time of an illegal war and military draft. For the most part we all know those that joined the Navy in those days, did so to avoid going into combat… tha’s cool… but do not hold it up for all to see that you did this to serve your country.
Michael, questioning our leaders isn’t treason. Sorry.
Questioning our leaders isn’t just a right in this Country. It’s our responsibility as Citizens.
I wonder; have you forgotten what you swore to when you were in service?
August 19th, 2007 at 4:04 pmFor Michael: George Bush is apparently a deserter and coward. Cheyney is apparently a coward and a poltroon. Karl Rove is an apparent appaent immoral idiot and poltroon. Better?
August 19th, 2007 at 4:05 pmHowever, the present administration has ignored the Constitution and broken laws – even Bush has admitted it (see FISA). The present administration has demonstrated a level of incompetency not even seen in most third world countries.
If you feel that you must support a fantasy, may I suggest that you take up D&D or something; it would less of a waste of your time.
Oh, and don’t go calling me a traitor – I DID serve in the military and have a DD214 to show for it.
No human rights abuses Michael? Are you kidding me? That’s right, just refuse to follow the logic of communication, that will throw us off your scent.
August 19th, 2007 at 4:06 pmAw forget michael and his silly questions. He wont answer anything, just another Mr Pee.
Beowulf fought a Dragon, Karl fights? Karls a chickenhawk! Bwhahaha. These chickenhwaks really think mightily of their pathetic porcine repugnancy!
August 19th, 2007 at 4:06 pmI wonder; have you forgotten what you swore to when you were in service?
Of course he doesn’t forget…
On my honor, I will do my best:
* To do my duty to God and my country and to obey the Scout Law
* To help other people at all times
* To keep myself physically strong, mentally awake, and morally straight
Wait, that’s the Boy Scouts, not the Navy. Ring a bell Michael? It wasn’t that long ago was it?
August 19th, 2007 at 4:06 pmThe “genius” of Rove helped destroy this country faster than Bin Laden ever could. I bet every troll here is “Proud to be an American” but I bet not one of them can’t point to one goddamn thing about America that they can be proud of.
Not one pillar of “Truth, Justice and the America way” remains standing and when a person like Mugabe of Zimbabwe further abuses his people and cites the US as an example for the justification of those new laws, there remains nothing for Americans to be proud about.
As Bush would so aptly put it, for America, Rove did a Heck of a Job. Bin Laden will forever be grateful.
August 19th, 2007 at 4:07 pmNow, as to other crimes, there are war crimes and treaty violations sponsored by the American president. For example, trading nuclear technology with India, a NPT non-signatory state which by treaty, should have been inelligable for such a deal.
Another example is the legalisation of torture, however that is more a war-crime comitted by Congress and the Senate then by Bush, he, through his deputy was a major force in favour of it and he didn’t excercise his veto to stop it. (Graham-Levin Amendment.)
This action violates the rules of war and the American constitution in ways which have not been seen since the civil war. Terrorism, though you wet your bed over it, is not a threat on the scale of the American civil war, a war has not even been officially declared.
August 19th, 2007 at 4:07 pmmichael…
you say you served. why aren’t you serving now? are you too old? they take you up to age 42. do you have a criminal record? lately they’ve been ignoring those. overweight? you’ll drop those pounds like MOABS in the desert sun. medical problems? come on, you’re a vet! suck it up! are you gay? that’s not surprising. a lot of conservatives are closeted gays. but it could be the only thing keeping you from re-upping and serving your country.
and why would a good conservative be posting on the liberal internet on sunday when you should be in church worshipping your god?

1: To characterise the Al Qaeada as a bunch of no-hopers is a sign of tragic ignorance.
A case in point: In the most recent spate of terror attacks in Britain, the guys who were fingered for the crimes were doctors. In terms of professional status, doctors are fairly high up on the totem pole.
2: Your knowledge of the IRA is cursory at best if you think it was made up purely of no-hopers looking for a thrill of power. It was and still is at its core an ideological movement for the unification of Ireland under a government seperate to that of the UK.

Because research into torture has shown that the information one gets from it is patently unreliable and it often leads to false leads (People lying to make the pain stop.)
Further, the example of the tortured individual leads to people who would otherwise be neutral, radicalising against the torturer. Abu Ghraib for example, is currently used by Al Qaeada in its propaganda.
Thus, why even Tsun Tsu’s rules of war, make a case for treating captured enemies well.

Too bad for you those allegations turned out to be completely unfounded and untrue. You do know that Christine Gregior is Governor of Washington, don’t you?
So how about all those counties in 2004 where the polls showed that the Democrat was ahead by 5 points and then the Republican won by 5 points? Just a coincidence even though it happened in numerous counties? And what about all those counties where there were more votes counted that there were people in the county? There are numerous documented instances of election fraud out there if you care to take a look. What there are not is any proven cases of voter fraud such as those you are trying to quote here.

Now, if only SOMEONE in the Busch WH had been able to read, they might have noticed that special briefing entitled “Bin Laden Determined To Strike Inside US”. Oh, that’s right, Condosleeza said that was just an “historical document”… hmmm… guess she was wrong, again.
August 19th, 2007 at 6:42 pmRove can spin the truth as much as he likes. The fact is he did out Plame’s covert status to Cooper and Novak. He outed a CIA agent to get back at Wilson and that’s why he was asked to testify in front of the grand jury 5 times. The only reason Rove isn’t sitting in jail is that he got immunity in return for his testimony.
August 19th, 2007 at 6:44 pm“Iraq is a win for the world. It will be won when we break the back of terrorists. It won’t happen soon, it will take decades. This is a way of life, get use to it.”.
What are you, stupid? Currently, Iraq has over two million refugees that are starving. They’ve probably suffered a half a million or so civilian combat casualties, their entire professional middle class has left the country. There is currently a civil war going on there, with hundreds dying in truck bombings every week, but you and your ilk think that’s a win for the world?
If someone who uses fear for political advantage is a terrorist, michael, guess what that makes your boy Bush?
Way of life? What, are you stupid? This war was elective on our part, and we can elect to get the hell out of there. Decades? You mean a really profitable war without end, right? ‘Cause that’s what you’re supporting, dimwit.
Leaving: it wouldn’t be the first time the Iraqis got screwed by the United States (”if you rise up against Saddam, we’ll support you” – remember that gem from 1991?), and Lord knows it probably won’t be the last.
We’re leaving, moron. Right after you lose the WhiteHouse, and the rest of Congress, forever.

No they didn’t. They stopped the hand recount which was against Florida election laws. I told you to be careful?
Comment by michael — August 19, 2007 @ 6:13 pm
———————————————————————————
Well no, it wasn’t, Michael.
First of all, hand recounts are specifically provided for under Florida election law, and the Gore team was in compliance with that law when they requested them.
If you are suggesting that the order of a statewide recount by the FSC was somehow “against Florida election laws” you are also wrong. The discretion of the court under Florida statute and common law to fashion such a remedy was not controverted by the USSC.
You are suggesting that that was the reason that the USSC stopped the manual recount, and once again you are wrong. The court issued a stay of the FSC order for a statewide recount until the case could be presented to the court…it had nothing to do with the legality of the recount under Florida law.
When the USSC issued its opinion in the case, it did not suggest that the statewide recount was in violation of Florida election law, and it only “stopped” the recount until it could be conducted under uniform statewide guidelines that satisfied equal protection requirements. They held that the deadlines for submission of results precluded that from happening, and so the recount ended. But NOT because it was “against Florida election laws.”
Not very careful of you, Mikey.
But then again, you admit you didn’t have the benefit of a public school education.

You are correct, the Florida Supreme Court ruled that the hand recount should continue even though it was against Florida’s election laws.

August 19th, 2007 at 8:04 pmAldritch Ames and Robert Hansen outed the identities of covert U.S. intelligence operatives to the Soviets…and ended up in prison.
Karl Rove, and members of his White House criminal gang, out the identity of a covert U.S. intelligence operative…and don’t get frog-marched off to prison.
This is why Karl Rove is called a traitor, just as Ames and Hansen were called traitors, because of their treasonous acts that endangered our national security through their outing of the identities of our nation’s covert intelligence operatives.
I’m certain that covert CIA agent Valerie Plame Wilson, as well as top officials at the CIA, always thought that they had more to worry about from our enemies overseas than from the executive branch of our own government…until that is, top officials in the Bush administration started dropping her name among “non-need-to-know” civilians in the U.S. news media.
And it is quite obvious that Karl Rove (and Dick Cheney) were the main culprits behind this treasonous, traitorous outing of a covert CIA agent’s identity, putting them on par with Ames and Hansen.

August 19th, 2007 at 8:15 pmThe Dionne quintuplets were born on May 28, 1934, to a humble, French-speaking couple in a farmhouse outside of Callander, Ontario, Canada. They were identical sisters and for the first 10 years of their lives, the five girls were the No. 1 tourism attraction in Canada.
Then came free health care for all Canadians. Which is why the four identical Jepp sisters were born in Great Falls, Mont., instead of Calgary this weekend. The Canadian parents flew 325 miles to get to an American hospital. . . . I’m sure most Canadians like their health system. Just remember, though, that Canada’s backup system is in Montana. Americans spend 15% of their income on health care. That’s why Great Falls has enough neo-natal units to handle quadruple births — and a “universal health†nation doesn’t. After all, they didn’t fly Mrs. Jepp to Cuba, did they?
Ouch.

August 19th, 2007 at 8:18 pmThe FL recount was not against the law. The FL Supreme Court ruled in favor of Gore because Gore was within his rights to ask for a recount. Bush didn’t want a recount because he knew Gore had won. The Supreme Court sided with Bush due to purely political reasons.
August 19th, 2007 at 8:18 pmWilson and his wife Plame are true American patriots. Wilson stood up to a president who was lying to the American people about the justifications used to invade Iraq. Plame was outed while in the service of her country which put other agents working with her at risk.

We’ve heard much talk lately about Canada’s “free” health care system, glorified in Michael Moore’s documentary “Sicko.”
Canada is certainly superior when it comes to providing all citizens with basic, preventative health care — an admirable feat.
But the births of the Jepp sisters are case in point that Canada’s medical infrastructure is as flawed as ours, just on the other end. Woe be those like Karen Jepp and her girls, whose lives depend on access to specialized doctors and surgeons.
The chances of conceiving identical quadruplets are anywhere from 1 in 11 million to 1 in 16 million, according to perinatologist Tom Key.
Damn those lazy, evil Canucks… simply NOT prepared for a 11 million to one long shot!!! Hey, Frank, thanks for pointing that out.

Sure not all terrorists were Iraqis, but there is an al-Quaida group in Iraq as we speak.
Why are you rambling about random events like “the Saudis are holding a large share of our national debt�

Comment by Makarios — August 19, 2007 @ 8:14 pm
Because the terrorists who attacked the World Trade Center, according to Bush, were Saudis led by OBL. Instead we went to war with Iraq, let OBL run loose and invited terrorists from all over the me to rush to Iraq to fill the vacuum left by Husseins execution. There was no al Qaeda in Iraq until we got there.

You are correct, the Florida Supreme Court ruled that the hand recount should continue even though it was against Florida’s election laws. Florida Supreme Court was changing it’s election laws right after the election and the U.S. Supreme Court told them they can’t. Read “Breaking The Deadlock†by Richard Posner. You might learn a thing or two about the 2000 election.
Comment by michael — August 19, 2007 @ 7:55 pm
——————————————————————–
Oh Mikey, if you had even bothered to read the actual cases, you would have avoided looking so foolish in public.
In Bush v. Palm Beach Canvassing Board, the USSC examined the FSC’s November 21, 2000 holding that Katharine Harris had abused her discretion when she refused to validate recounted election results. NOTE: this had to do with the date of the certification of the original count, not the recounts requested by Gore after the certification.
The USSC vacated the FSC holding and sent it back down for clarification of the basis of the holding. The FSC complied and submitted the clarifications while the USSC was considering Bush v. Gore, and so the two cases were combined.
It was before hearing the arguments in Bus v. Gore that the USSC issued an order staying the FSC’s mandate for a statewide recount. It was the recount ordered in response to Gore’s post-certification requests for recounts – which most certainly WERE authorized by Florida law, hon. The USSC simply ordered that the recount stop until they had heard the case.
Then they issued their opinion. Nowhere did they say the FSC had changed Florida’s “election laws” by ordering the recount, nor did they question the court’s authority to do so. They held that the recount must be conducted under uniform standards meeting equal protection requirements… except that it could not be completed in time to meet the constitutionally-mandated deadline.
My gosh Mikey, didn’t your mom teach you how to read for comprehension?

Well, except for Reagan. Bush was the first president to SURRENDER to terrorists, giveng them everything they wanted, including an unwarranted, illegal invasion of the wrong country. Bush and Cheney are the main supporters of al Qaeda worldwide, and entirely responsible for their presence in Iraq. In fact, Al Qaeda is an invention of the Bush crime cabal, who, like all totalitarian fascistis wannabes, need to invent enemies to rouse the idiot public (the base, English for Al Qaeda, by the way) into supporying their world domination schemes. The proof of this is in the speed with which Bush abandoned the hunt for Osama, allowing hinm to escape at Tora Bora, and continualing to aloow him free reign in Pakistan. Any president that kisses and holds hands with Saudi princes has no love or loyalty to the USA. That’s pretty easy for all to see.

Maybe you should read you quote over again, you seem to have misread this part:
August 19th, 2007 at 10:40 pmNothing but the truth should be spoken about him or any one else.
Basically this is the jist of what both Teddy and I were saying.
Ahh, sorry, thought it was a new-fangled acronym :). The World Bank is a fund sucking entity that doesn’t actually do anything.

August 19th, 2007 at 10:42 pmWell, other than further the goals of whatever US leader is in power.
August 19th, 2007 at 10:42 pmWell, Claypool, you seem kinda angry tonight.
August 19th, 2007 at 10:43 pmNothing but the truth should be spoken about him or any one else.
Basically this is the jist of what both Teddy and I were saying.
He is not the President, as he never got the popular vote. He only got the unconstitutinal Electoral vote, and through illegal, unconstitutional means. So that is the truth TEDDY says we should stand up and shout.
August 19th, 2007 at 10:44 pmAre you really defending Karl Rove? I don’t even defend that mongoloid, James Carville. Try some reality. Rove is the worst thing to happen to politics since (discounting Cheney) Lee Atwater.
August 19th, 2007 at 10:45 pmGood try Makarios (Michael) in getting yourself associated with the thoughts as expressed through Teddy’s quote, but you are the same ilk as DIpshit Liberator.
August 19th, 2007 at 10:47 pm““Karl Rove, Vice President Cheney, and President Bush are TRUE AMERICANS! You are nothing but a liberal sissy who thinks that it is fun to insult The UNITED STATES and it’s brave leaders!—
And other posts of his/hers stating to get out of America if we want to talk the truth, however bad it is of Dipshiit for brains bush.
JPark,
I don’t feel angry. Maybe I sounded angry in a post because of the way I typed it, who knows?
————————————————–
Bodhittsatva,
“He [Bush] is not the President” “the unconstitutional Electoral vote”
It sounds to me that TEDDY would have wanted you to tell the truth about these things, bodhi…
Come on… I know you have it in ya’… do it for TEDDY…
August 19th, 2007 at 10:48 pmDon’t feed the trolls, just sit by and watch them eat their own offsprings.
August 19th, 2007 at 10:49 pmThe truth is that you and your kin are traitors and will be torn down by the true America loving patriots who wish to PROTECT the Constitution and put it asunder as you have enabled the piece of human trash (bush) to do, since day one. And Rove is just less than human, fore he has no soul.

Oh good Lord!!!
Bodhittsatva, what is your point, my friend?
Try to focus on this key sentence:
To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public.
Spoken by Teddy Roosevelt? Republican? Much-admired U.S. president? Generally considered to be an authority on patriotism? Any of it starting to make sense to you, yet?

August 19th, 2007 at 11:02 pmThere were those who accused President Clinton of murdering his former friend what’s-his-name, a pretty serious finger-pointing for which there is no real evidence.
I don’t claim that those who made such accusations were un-American or lacking in patriotism or any such nonsense. Those people were probably all idiots, but I don’t think that transfers to them being traitorous or unloving of their country.
I think the same holds true of accusations about George W. Bush. You can malign him and slander him all you want. It doesn’t mean you don’t love your country.

You know what I’m trying to say is that most of us tend to resort to hyperbole, exaggeration, and speculation sometimes when discussing subjects on these threads. It’s fairly natural, I think, in the heat of debate, and you are as guilty of it as anyone else. Usually, when this kind of thing happens, there’s someone like michael around to call the libs out on this, and when you trolls do it, we all jump on you.
All in all, I would rather see this kind of interaction than some kind of watered-down exchange where no one dares make any statement that has not been verified by a Supreme Court ruling or the unanimous consensus of the scientific world.
I would rather we criticized our government and be wrong, than not criticize it and be wrong.
August 19th, 2007 at 11:17 pmtest
August 19th, 2007 at 11:17 pmThat depends…if you hold the view that a government should be questioned when it is wrong, I agree. If questioning for questioning’s sake is the point, then it is not right (but I don’t think Teddy would have meant that)
August 19th, 2007 at 11:17 pmExcellent post Eggy.
August 19th, 2007 at 11:18 pm“The President is merely the most important among a large number of public servants. He should be supported or opposed exactly to the degree which is warranted by his good conduct or bad conduct, his efficiency or inefficiency in rendering loyal, able, and disinterested service to the Nation as a whole. Therefore it is absolutely necessary that there should be full liberty to tell the truth about his acts, and this means that it is exactly necessary to blame him when he does wrong as to praise him when he does right. Any other attitude in an American citizen is both base and servile. To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public. Nothing but the truth should be spoken about him or any one else. But it is even more important to tell the truth, pleasant or unpleasant, about him than about any one else.”

Comment by ZuZu — August 19, 2007″
First off, your premise is wrong. Hand recounts are permissible under only two conditions:
1 if the original count was done by hand, which it wasn’t
2 if the person challenging the results can show that the tabulating machines used in a particular precinct counted votes incorrectly which algore didn’t do.
As I told someone else today, read “Breaking The Deadlock” by Richard Posner. You might learn something about the 2000 election.
August 19th, 2007 at 11:31 pmThat is the thing, kasinca. 75% would vote against Republicans if they told the truth and 75% would vote for the Dems if they told the truth (but they are so inexplicably cowardly they will not even tell the truth when the majority support them).

Also as you seem to feel your ed was/is significantly superior might you compare and contrast it with what you envision as a comparable public education. Thanks….

First off my criticism is of public grade and high school. In the most advanced country in the world we are graduating walking idiots! zooey is a great example. They don’t have mandatory classes in the sciences, literature, English, history, math, and language. I know! My wife just put her daughter through public high school in a very affluent are of San Francisco. Her education and expectations were horrible! Todays public schools promote making a child feel good as apposed to learning how to function in the real world. I could go on and on, but I won’t. The real judge of just what a public school turns out can be seen bt reading some of their posts on this blog! They are incredibly moronic!

Which is not to say we don’t have floods. 1996 is a good example. I think the levees along Marine Drive were relatively safe, but a lot of houseboats and marinas were trashed. Some friends of mine were a foot or two from having their home float off into the Pacific.

August 20th, 2007 at 12:44 am“Now the U.S. Supreme Court has spoken. Let there be no doubt, while I strongly disagree with the court’s decision, I accept it. I accept the finality of this outcome which will be ratified next Monday in the Electoral College. And tonight, for the sake of our unity of the people and the strength of our democracy, I offer my concession.” Are you REALLY THAT YOUNG?

August 20th, 2007 at 12:45 amThe 2000 election was both a tragedy and a farce.
In the aftermath, two things seemed glaringly clear.
1) We need a universal, verifiable, trustworthy voting system.
2) We need to do away with the Electoral College and simply have a popular vote for president.
August 20th, 2007 at 12:45 amI wait for Al Gore’s return to claim the seat that is rightfully his.

Whew. Rove v Wade is safe then.
You’re probably OK with Kelo v City of New London, too.
August 20th, 2007 at 12:46 amKarl Rove was one of SEVEN people in the Bush admin who were shown at Libby’s trial to have leaked Plame’s name.
Others included Libby and Armitage.
Since Plame was our WMD spy, along with the Brewster Jennings company, Bush’s CRIMINALS
SABOTAGED our National Security, and the leakers are TRAITORS.
Concerning the SCOTUS decision, Vincent Bugliosi, hard-right Manson prosecutor wrote a book called “The Betray of America”.
Supreme Court decisions normally set precedent, having not been resolved in lower courts.
The SCOTUS said it was a “one-time decision”, and did NOT set precedent.
Bugliosi said the SCOTUS betrayed America.
August 20th, 2007 at 12:46 amWasn’t that silly, Eggy? To say they weren’t setting precedent while ruling on something which had never happened before? Kinda sounds like precedent.

And none of this changes the fact that the Florida 2000 recount was done by hand (I watched the nightly news at that time and they showed footage of the manual recount).
It also changes nothing regarding the fact that the recount was not stopped because it was against Florida law, as michael has claimed.
Here is a good primer on the subject.
Your friend michael is absolutely, 100% wrong. So much for his private education he likes to brag about.

Goodnight again, Rose? And Egg? And Bush is a WAR CRIMINAL TRAITOR? (I’ve got to stop with these question marks, or I’ll be using them pointlessly tomorrow at work. Damn michael anyway!)
August 20th, 2007 at 2:06 amMakarios, you know I was sincere about your blog. It really is very nice. I wish you the best of success with it.

Actually, it is just the ultimate Reichtwing site, that attempts to go back in time and re-write history. All the text is just Madcowious’ opinion, but spewed as dogma. There is no way to go back and research without a huge undertaking, because he leaves off his trail of references. Not a citation or reference for any quotes or statements of fact.
Just another piece of shit (yeah may look good,) but a little TOO good, if you catch my drift.
PROPAGANDA to unlearn the mighty masses.
August 20th, 2007 at 2:12 amOh, there you are!
Good luck with school! I envy you. I’m too lazy to go back to school. I took one class a couple of years ago, and I think I may have took it too seriously. I was exhausted during the last term, trying to go to school and work full time, walking back and forth to each. I’m kinda lame.

Thanks, Egg.
Heh. I’m just impoverishing myself by not working. It’s loads easier that way. :)
Goodnight, my friend.

I think you’re being a little too harsh on him. I’m sure his interpretation of history is slanted by his wacko views, but I don’t think he’ll cause as much damage on his blog as he does here. It’s a good use of his time, and I’m sure he’ll get better as he goes along.
I have a genealogy blog where I keep track of my progress and share some of the things I’ve learned. I’m kind of lazy about documenting my sources there as well, which is kind of a bad habit, but it’s my blog and I do what I like. I’m always happy to provide documentation to anyone who requests it however.
I bet Pee would do the same.
August 20th, 2007 at 2:22 amGoodnight for real!

August 20th, 2007 at 2:23 amThere are very few examples of educated public schoolers.

Such as the Nobel Prize-winning scientist who graduated from the same public high school as I, the four and seven Nobel Prize-winning scientists who respectively graduated from Stuyvesant High and the Bronx High School of Science, both NYC public schools, mikey? How many Nobel Prize laureates attended your supposedly superior private (or home) school, or Pepperdine, the university you claim to have attended? I know it’s zero in the latter case, and undoubtedly the same in the former case, too.
August 20th, 2007 at 3:42 amCome on lil? Demonstrate to us, through your posts, that a public school education really does teach you something?
Comment by michael — August 19, 2007 @ 4:40 pm
One thing my public school education taught me that you obviously have yet to learn is the difference between a question mark (?) and a period (.), 阿呆ï¼

Seems like the debate got drowned out by Rove this morning. kind of a shame, because it was pretty good.
I also posted the entire debate (55 min) here
Texas defies federal court with plan to execute man who did not kill
· Controversial state law led to murder conviction
· Accomplice had sat in car 25 metres from shooting
Dan Glaister in Los Angeles
Monday August 20, 2007
The Guardian
Texas is poised to execute a man for a crime he did not commit. While the perpetrator of the murder in San Antonio was executed last year, Kenneth Foster, who was sitting in a car 25 metres away at the time of the shooting, was sentenced to death under the “law of parties”.
August 20th, 2007 at 5:44 amThe controversial Texas law removes the distinction between the principal actor and accomplice in a crime, and makes a person guilty if they “should have anticipated” the crime.
Time for your nap tobey…come on little one, quit playing at big people things and lay down now. Youre embarrassing me and the neighbors are starting to talk.

I’m glad I moved away from Texas! I could be accused for “anticipating” the deaths that Pres. Bush is encouraging!

Seen as other posters have already supplied links for you to peruse, I will leave it at this:
You have argued that America was attacked and therefore the invasion of Iraq was retaliatory. Except, not a one of the hijackers on 9/11 was from Iraq. They were mostly Saudis. Further, Saddam was a known enemy of Osama Bin Laden at the time.
Thus, I have to ask whether your reasoning is due to you being misinformed, or simply racist (They are all Arabs! …sort-of.)
August 20th, 2007 at 8:16 amThis is just more cover-up and subversion from a government that has become more about the ruling class and less about the people. We are being led toward a world that my father and yours fought against….a fascist

Bush is now the embarrassing uncle the Republicans just can’t hide
With the departure of Karl Rove, the stench of failure hangs over the president – and his party wants to ignore the smell

August 20th, 2007 at 8:59 amRegarding Valerie Plame’s identity, Karl Rove said, “What I did say to one reporter was, I’ve heard that, too”.
Attention, Karl. You may remember that, before you got your security clearance, you were trained how to protect Secret information. I know you received this training because Everyone who gets a security clearance receives this training. It’s mandatory. As part of that training you were instructed not to confirm secret information, because, even if you are not the first person to divulge a secret, then confirming secret information is … well, confirming secret information.
When you have a Security clearance, and you confirm information that is supposed to be Secret, then you’ve committed a felony, and at the very least your clearance should be immediately revoked. Unless you work for George W. Bush, in which case Laws Are For Other People.
