Cheney helped force Rove out

By Jackson Thoreau

Dick Cheney helped force George W. Bush to finally agree to dump top aide Karl Rove, sources say.
Cheney and Rove have engaged in a mostly behind-the-scenes feud since the indictment of Cheney's top aide, Lewis "Scooter" Libby, in 2005. Rove was included as "Official A" in the indictment who also leaked information to key media members to try to discredit Iraqi war critic Joseph Wilson.
Rove did not get indicted after giving depositions five times in the investigation and changing some of his statements.
Cheney, who reportedly masterminded the vendetta campaign against Wilson himself, thought that Rove blamed the scandal on Libby, who he considered a scapegoat. Rove and Cheney have been at each other's throats since.
Cheney's lobbying efforts to convince Bush to dump Rove were aided by Rove's dismal efforts in the 2006 elections and role in ensuing scandals involving the political firings of attorneys general and the improper use by White House aides of Republican National Committee email accounts. Even Bush knew Rove had become too big of a liability.
Rove's lies that he is resigning to spend more time with his family, including a second wife and son in college who won't be around anyway, are laughable, to say the least.
Perhaps Rove wants to spend more time with his gay stepfather, the one who left Rove and his suicidal mother during Christmas time one year, to talk about "family values."

with a son like Karl Rove would be suicidal.

will the Chimp be next? Could Cheney cause the Chimp to become "incapacitated" so he can be acting President before the 2008 election?

Or maybe not. Whose star is he going to hitch his wagon to now?

Fred
Sam
Rudy???

say how he knows this? Sounds like pure speculation to me.

the one who ran out on rove's mother Reba L. Wood (-----) I found a Reba Wood and I think she is rove's mother married and divorced from a man with the name "Other Pasquel". And that's an odd name Other....But no matter how you search you can't find anything. rove went to see his father but he refused to acknowledge him. Maybe that is what rove had the clerks to, delete any reference to his father in the NARA. They did a good job on deleting everything pertaining to bush's non-existence Air Guard record I guess they thought they could do the same for rove.

The only thing about this is rove has lost some of his clout and investigative powers.

I would think that any military action against Iran will cook the repubs for a long time and Rove may know this and advised against it.
