4. No mention of the subpoena approved for her to testify or that she's an *official* Rove operative
To hear *Michael A. Fletcher* tell it, she's merely starting to look for her next job before the herd of post-Bushies hit the streets. No mention that a subpoena has been approved for her, or that she was actually a deputy of Rove's, and not merely a traveling aide during the 2004 campaign -- what a complete and total whitewash.

Across Capitol Hill, Leahy's panel approved _ but did not issue _ a subpoena in the firings matter for Sara Taylor, deputy to Bush political adviser Karl Rove.

Sampson testified before Congress that he drafted the February 23 letter even though he had conferred with the White House about appointing Griffin. Sampson testified that he included the language about Rove not being involved because he didn't know for a fact that Rove was pushing for his former aide's appointment.

"I knew that Sara Taylor and Scott Jennings had expressed interest in promoting Mr. Griffin for appointment to be U.S. attorney, and I assumed, because they reported to Karl Rove, that he was interested in that," Sampson said in testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee on March 29.
