powerclown, stevo:

are either of you lawyers?
do you practice?
in what field?

if not, then why exactly should anyone take your pronouncements about what is and is not an adequate legal basis for prosecuting rove seriously?

it appears that rove is the object of an investigation. but you do not even know that for sure. all you know is that there is an investigation and that this investigation threatens your boy karl rove.
there is as yet no indictment, so there is no trial, but you pretend that the trial is happening now.

eliminate political scandal by pretending the political does not exist: a pretty ominous strategy coming from this administration--pretty telling too, in that it provides a backhanded view into the underpinnings of the sense of total impunity that has animated these people from 9/11/2001 on. this administration does not feel itself politically accountable to anyone.
you dutifully repeat this logic, which is what a conservative seems to do above and beyond all else: repeat the party line...repeat the party line with particular relish when it comes wrapped in the trappings of pseduo-precision..

frankly, i see little more of interest in your defenses of rove than i find listening to sports talk radio and hearing the metaphysics of sports being debated
....and certainly nothing compelling in that i fundamentally do not believe that the terms you are using are your own.
