Rove gets touchy.

The Kansas City Star reports on President Bush’s visit to a GM plant today:

Besides his considerable security contingent, the chief executive was accompanied by Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove and Press Secretary Tony Snow.

A reporter approached Rove to ask him what he thought of rumors that former Missouri Sen. Jack Danforth could replace embattled Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. “How about you go over there and do your job,” Rove replied, pointed back to the media pool.

6. Write down the Decider's decision. Go home. Make love to your wife.
Polish up that book you've been working on. The one about the intrepid Washington reporter who defies the establishment in a relentless pursuit for truth. You know - fiction!

(Roughly paraphrased from Stephen Colbert)

9. Poor KKKarl. Things just aren't working out the way he planned.
His plans were so carefully orchestrated, too.

He knows he's about to see his career tossed into the BBQ pit, and he knows that so many of his dirty little (illegal) secrets are about to be exposed.

Those damn partisan Democrats! Why can't they just leave well enough alone?

Another few years, and Dr. Evil the GOP will own the world! HA HA HA!!!

10. Just heard that WH has agreed for Rove to give unsworn testimony
Edited on Tue Mar-20-07 03:33 PM by Divernan
This was a "current news" bit on an FM radio station. If this is true, I hope the Senate replies they only listen to sworn testimony and that if Rove won't testify voluntarily under oath, a subpoena will be issued. How bizarre that any govt. official OR private citizen refuses to testify under oath. That's like giving them license to lie. Their only option, if appearing under subpoena, is to plead the Fifth Amendment.
