Dean urges Bush to fire Rove

Democratic leader says U.S. security should be defended


The Associated Press

MADISON — Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean tried Wednesday night to turn the pressure up on President Bush to fire political adviser Karl Rove.

He said a failure to do so would be putting politics ahead of national security.

Dean, speaking at a party fundraiser, said Bush in the coming days should live up to his promise to fire anybody involved in leaking the identity of CIA operative Valerie Plame.

“Now we’re going to find out, Mr. President, if you’ll keep your word: who do you value more, Mr. President, do you value intelligence operatives defending the United States of America or do you value political operatives from Texas?” Dean told a crowd of 500 in a downtown Madison theater.

“Who do you value more, Mr. President, the security of the American people, or your political cronies? Will you keep your word?”

1. I think the answer to that question is quite clear....

"Who do you value more, Mr. President, the security of the American people, or your political cronies? Will you keep your word?”

bush has always valued "loyalty" in his subordinates. By "loyalty", I mean blind allegiance whether bush is right or completely and utterly wrong. That's not loyalty, that's being a toady, an invertebrate yes man with no balls.

bush will not keep his word, he has no moral compass except for his faux religious beliefs. And those beliefs are subject to his desires. Everything takes a back seat to bush's desires, they always have and always will.

Bravo, Dean. Keep taking it to the bastards.
