Mr. Bush Tear Down That Stone Wall
http://releases.usnewswire.com/GetRelease.asp?id=52233

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Following is a release from the Democratic National Committee:
MR. BUSH, TEAR DOWN THAT STONE WALL!
A daily service of the DNC, "Mr. Bush, Tear Down That Stone Wall!" will highlight a specific fact that has been revealed and what Americans deserve to know about the White House's involvement in the improper and possibly illegal disclosure of an undercover CIA agent's identity for political gain.
WHAT'S BEEN UNCOVERED
Sen. Pat Roberts (R-KS) To Conduct Hearings On CIA's Use Of Cover To Protect Intelligence Officers. Senator Pat Roberts, Republican of Kansas, said on the CNN program "Late Edition" that the Senate Intelligence Committee was "going to go into quite a series of hearings in regard to cover." Valerie Wilson had worked under cover for the agency for 18 years before being publicly identified as a CIA operative in 2003. Roberts said there were questions about the depth of Ms. Wilson's cover, because she had been based at the Virginia headquarters of the CIA at least since 1997. (New York Times, 7/25/05)
WHAT AMERICANS DESERVE TO KNOW Why have Congressional Republicans been so quick to investigate the CIA's covert operative standards, but refuse to investigate what appears to be a culture of corruption in the White House that allowed the leaking of a CIA operative's identity? Why have they spent their time questioning Plame's status instead of questioning the White House's conduct? Has the White House already shared information about the outing of Plame with Congressional Republicans that has convinced them not to hold hearings specifically on Rove or other Administration officials? Is it because they owe their political fortunes to Rove? Why has the Administration allowed Republicans to continue questioning Valerie Plame's status as a covert operative when they have said that any comment on this situation is inappropriate in light of the ongoing investigation? 45 days Since The American Public Learned That A White House Official With Security Clearance Leaked The Identity Of A Covert CIA Operative.

1. I have no doubt that if Bush were to
go out and shoot someone on the White House lawn in cold blood. The Republican Congress would immediately start an investigation as to why the grass on the lawn had not been properly maintained.

4. he weren't shot! He had an exploding aneurism and slipped on the grass
A lot of people get them exploding amortizing clots, when I was a kid, Uncle Howard Hunt said that's how JFK died. He said he saw it through binoculars, or a telescope, or some kinder scope.

2. The Vietnam Memorial? I'm sure he'd love to.
All wars we fight are good and successful.
