HOW VAIN IT IS TO SIT DOWN TO WRITE WHEN YOU HAVE NOT STOOD UP TO LIVE.

Stark Roving Mad
Here's a joke: How can you tell when a politician is willing to put American security and lives at risk, ruin careers and disassemble families for political gain?
He's all for protecting journalistic sources when his ass is on the line but if something goes against his agenda then he doesn't think the same rules apply. I'm tired of his bullying and hypocritical crap. Journalistic sources should be protected but what he did by leaking CIA info was highly unethical and done so for political gain. Again, it's okay for him to do it but no one else. There is no integrity in politics...
It seems everyone in politics is crooked to a degree. I don't mean to be picking on the republicans, it's just that lately, they are the ones who are getting caught. Demos seem just as crooked when it comes to their special interest friends.
Is anyone surprised by this? GWB is used to getting his way. He has not stopped in his life till he got his way. Whether it was a cherry assignment in the Nat'l Guard, to his "oil" deals to his "running" the Texas Rangers, he will stop at nothing, and for all the cry about the "Liberal" press, he has benn given a free ride in this presidency. This is a slippery slope full of slippery people on BOTH sides. I love my country but I absolutely HATE my government.

Karl is getting good at this. Maybe he can "out" his boss without mentioning any names.....
If the Bush administration had any integrity they would hang Rove out to dry. Of course, they would have also fired Rummy, so we know it's not there.
