Democrats-only Hill hearing targets Rove
By James G. Lakely
THE WASHINGTON TIMES
July 23, 2005

Democrats convened a partisan hearing yesterday in an attempt to breathe new life into the suspicion that Karl Rove is guilty of an illegal leak to the press.

Roll Call reported Thursday that a set of "talking points" was issued Wednesday by Senate Democratic leadership urging rank-and-file senators to do what they could to keep the controversy surrounding Mr. Rove in the news.
Republican National Committee spokeswoman Tracey Schmitt said the "faux hearings" demonstrate that Democrats are too eager to score political points to wait for the facts to come out upon completion of the special prosecutor's investigation into the matter.
"If Democrats had any confidence in the investigatory process, they would hold their fire and let the investigation proceed rather than rushing to judgment," Miss Schmitt said.

1. Rebuttal to this twisted line of thinking... this is not about Valerie
this is about 1795 men and women who would otherwise still be breathing were it not for this ENTIRE caper...

18,000 who would still have their minds, legs and arms... hundreds who would still be married... and 10's of thousands of dead Iraqi civilians many women and children.

This is about lying to congress. This is about duping an entire country. This is about using 911 for personal gain.
