More Trails Lead to Rove

Those who read the American Prospect or the Village Voice, know that as of late Murray Waas has had the most up to date information on treasongate. Last week, in the American Prospect, Murray disclosed that Rove had met with Judith Miller shortly before Valerie Plame was outed as a CIA Agent, and that the princiipal reason Miller has not cooperated with Fitzgerald is that Scooter Libby had never given a specific privelege waiver to her (which I of course asked him to do -- no response as of yet).

This week, in the Village Voice, Waas revealed that the reason Ashcroft ultimately was forced to permit the appointment of a special prosecutor was because of concerns that Rove may have misled FBI investigators regarding his role in the matter. The problem is, because of his personal and political relationships with Rove, Ashcroft should have recused himself when he first learned about Rove's involvement. He also should not have allowed himself to be privately briefed on Rove's involvement. Because of these concerns, I plan to ask the Department's Office of Inspector General to investigate whether Ashcroft violated applicable recusal and conflict of interest rules and guidelines. (I previously asked them to investigate the delay in the Department's investigation and the advance notice given to the White House). I hope to have more on this tomorrow.

1. Were the Busheviks counting on Ashcroft to stay and cover for
them? When he didn't the pucker factor increased dramatically.

Dr. Assman - paging Dr. Assman - shitstorm needed shitstorm needed for news control; shitstorm needed for CONfusion.

Whiiip whiiip whiiip all hands on deck all hands on deck - get on the horn and whip up some fear with the Terra Drill. Whiiip Whiiip Whiiip Chimp and Chumps in trouble.

Paging Henry Kissmessenger - Paging Dr. Kissmessenger. Paging Dr. Greenspin Paging Dr. Greenspin - increase the CONfusion to warp speed, suggest engagement of Caterpillar drive. Whooop Whooop Whooop - compass needle continuing to point steady - crisis needed crisis needed.

Nothing to see here folks just a keyboard hit by the Kramer virus - OUTACONtroll.

7. I think Ashcroft would spill if he was squeezed a little
When his eagle quits soaring, he will fall into a heap of sniveling. He reminds me of Jimmy Swaggart. :cry:
