On edit, more explanation...

Let's not forget to ask what Bush knew and when he knew it. I want to hear him make some denials about knowing anything about this.

1. well, that would be nice but..........
HERES WHAT I THINK WOULD BE A MUCH MORE EFFECTIVE ARGUMENT:

Bush promised us to dump any members of his administration who leaked info, now if the info about this Rove leak is solid. He has to go. I've already seen mainstream media picking up on this thought.

So maybe thats what we need to keep pounding on, that it is an issue of integrity. Bush cannot maintain his integrity in front of the American people and keep Karl Rove on staff. This is the point.

2. I'm concerned we're focusing only on Rove and ...

... forgetting about Bush.

Katrina van den Heuvel just said it on CNN. She said she would like to know what Bush knew and when he knew it. She's right.

I wish the reporter who asked about whether Bush would fire Rove today had followed up with, "and what about yourself, sir?" To me, it looked like Bush was glad they only asked about Rove.

On edit: Pardon my forgetting... Welcome to DU! And yes, I too am hoping we focus on the lack of integrity Bush is showing by keeping Rove around!

3. Ahh, Yes...
.. Bush knew plenty.

I've always said that one day this administration would face somehing bigger than Watergate, and it will.

Just wait.

4. By sticking with rove he has aligned himself with high crimes --
so none of them can be considered not involved. Bush, Cheney, Rove, Scotty, Scooter Libby etc.
