1. What a useless waste of activism! It's like pissing on the curtain,
but ignoring the whole machinery behind it.

Rove's just a small cog, the BIG picture is the whole process of foisting lie after lie on the American public about Iraq and WMD.

Firing Rove is beside the point. Who told HIM? Who set up the Niger forgeries in the first place? What use is there in calling for Rove to be fired if it leaves the whole rest of the criminal conspiracy untouched?

Even if Rove were fired -- which, barring an actual criminal conviction he WON'T be (and if he were, a presidential pardon is just a penstroke away) -- does anyone honestly believe that bushco will suddenly just wilt away into helplessness?

We need to think BIG, we need to work on exposing the BIG LIES. Calling for Rove's head does nothing.

3. Thanks. I didn't bother to click on the link because I felt so disgusted.
Like, here's this massive organizational vehicle and that's the best they can come up with?

I'm glad to know I'm not alone in my opinion. And thank you for not taking offense at my rant.

:hi: back atcha!

4. I Agree and Disagree
I agree the contest is just a waste of time.

I also think that Rove should be fired, he is a traitor. He should then be prosecuted even if he were to be pardoned after that, at least some knowledge of his treason would be made public.

Plus, Rove is a traitor. For that reason alone he should be fired and prosecuted.

5. But what's the point of firing Rove, when he's just an errand boy?
The whole damn cabal needs to go! Why not keep the focus on that?

It's no victory to grab a pistol off a guy riding in a tank if the tank just keeps on rolling.

These people have no honor. Counting coup on them means nothing, they must be utterly destroyed. They are ALL traitors.

6. and the coup d'etat, and 9/11, and the world domination plots, etc.
We've got a problem far, far larger than a mere scandal.
