my theory: the firings and the NSA wiretaps are connected.
I think the NSA was actively seeking dirt on democrats illegally, and handing it off to loyalist USAttys to harrass or blackmail dems.
I think the democratic congresscritter (whose name escapes me at the moment) caught with thousands in his refrigerator is part of it.

I think it involves a blackmail scheme so large and so wide reaching that the concept of absolute compliance on Rove strategies will be understood in the light of extortion, at its absolute dirtiest.

and when THAT unravels, it will be connected to cunningham, abrahamoff, hastert, sibel edmonds' secrets, and all the way back to 9.11 and the orders to allow it to happen.

whether this all comes out is another question, but I think that is the RISK bush and rove are not willing to take.

1. Yes, and that's why the firings hide the much bigger crime of
OBSTRUCTION OF JUSTICE. This is all about obstruction of justice, imo.

2. With this bunch, everything is connected to everything.
This thing is so large and inter-connected it will never totally unravel.

7. Exactly. They always have multiple motives and benefits in
anything they do. And when something starts to smell, they turn it around. I noticed early. I wish I would have documented it. I think of it as cascading strategies. Always a flow.

4. I think the only reason Bush started the Do-Not-Call registry was to give the database to The NSA.

8. I have thought they were spying on the Dems for a LONG time, and
that blackmail was keeping Dems in check............until they got the majority and its attendant POWER.
