Rove's latest "stratgic and tactical" program resulted in another high level person in the Bush administration found guilty of breaking the law:
Quote:
The Office of Special Counsel confirmed that it delivered to President Bush today its investigative report concluding General Services Administration chief Lurita Doan violated the law that limits political activity in federal agencies, leaving Doan's future in the hands of the White House.
A spokesman for the Office of Special Counsel, the agency that investigates alleged Hatch Act violations, confirmed that the report was sent to the White House, but would not provide details.
OSC's investigation focused on Doan's role in a Jan. 26 meeting at GSA headquarters, where Scott Jennings, special assistant to the president and a deputy of political adviser Karl Rove, showed a 28-slide PowerPoint presentation to more than 30 GSA political appointees that analyzed the results of the 2006 midterm election and prospects for the 2008 elections.
The OSC concluded Doan violated the Hatch Act when she asked at the conclusion of the meeting how the agency could help Republican candidates. Doan's counsel has argued that the investigation was not conducted objectively and a stigma of impropriety overshadows the case.

I do give Rove credit for being wise enough to keep himself one step removed from the implementation of his many questionable ."stratgic and tactical" programs....but the fall guys are mounting....Libby, Goodling, Doan...
The Rove-Abramoff connections may be exposed next.....if the House Govt Oversight Committee gives immunity to Susan Ralston, a former assistant to both Rove and Abramoff.
