| We need someone to investigate and get rid of KKKRove. |
|
I just watched "Bush's Brain" and all the Kerry bashing in this campaign has KKKRove written all over it. IF the chimp falls behind too far in the polls, WATCH OUT for KKKRove. He will do ANYTHING to win.
He bugged his own office during a campaign in Texas and blamed it on the opponent. The opponent was ahead 21 points, Rove bugged his office, blamed the opponent and won the race for his guy.
Then, he sicked the FBI on 2 men in the Agricultural Dept. of Texas (he has an FBI agent in his pocket), the 2 men did nothing more than ask for campaign donations while employed with the Ag. Dept. and spent time in jail for it. KKKRove wanted to get Rick Perry (I wonder if he's related to Bob Perry..Smearboat funder?) to be the head of the Ag. Dept. He's now GOVERNOR of Texas!
THAT is just the tip of the KKKRove iceberg. He's DANGEROUS! He was fired from the Reagan/Bush administration for LEAKING information. Sound familiar? (Plame) Of course, no one has ever been able to pin any of this stuff on KKKRove.
WHY doesn't SOMEONE take that guy down? Investigate him? Get some dirt on him. There HAS to be some.
If you haven't seen Bush's Brain, you should! JOHN KERRY should have a copy to see also.

| 1. I agree - the Kerry campaign doesn't need to it |
|
If the DNC wasn't incompetent they would have someone talking about Rove...

| 2. They need to do more than talk about him. |
|
They need to hire private investigators or SOMETHING to get the guy thrown in jail. He's a menace to our Democracy!

| 3. Perhaps they are incompetent - I cannot say... |
|
...but I know that if they CAN find REAL evidence against this reptile, they WILL use it. Some people make damn sure all the evidence is buried.

That's the problem. They control just about everything in way of investigations. Once Kerry is in office, he will more likely then not hit these guys with the full weight of our legal and investigative system.
The most we can do now is get the word out, editorial write in, word of mouth. Anything negative dealing with Rove will not make it thru the corporate media filter. That is a fact.

The media FEARS him. THAT is why he gets away with so much shit. He, in front of the WH pool of reporters, confronted a reporter about an article he had written that was not favorable toward KKKRove. In the movie they said it was to show ALL the reporters what "could" happen to them. He sent a warning to them. "I" would think that if they fear him that much, if there was some really credible dirt on the guy, they would go out of their way to air it....just to get rid of the evil SOB. :shrug:

But remember the people these pool reporters fear the most are their own corporate bosses. Let's face it, CNN is a completely changed news outlet, specifically because of the corporate masters and the people they have appointed to dictate policy.
True the media would go after Rove with everything they have IF they have that smoking gun, that overwhelming information showing Rove directly involved in any smear. Don't hold your breath waiting for that smoking gun. They will how ever take a story like the swift boat lies and run with it morning to night for weeks on end even though right from the beginning it was discredited. All because this is what these corporate masters along with people like Rove want to happen.
There is a serious problem in this country and it's a hell of alot deeper then pool reporters fearing 1 ego manic.The Fair Reporting Act needs to be brought back into effect. Kerry has mentioned he would like to have it reinstated. This is something the corporate media and people like Rove who depend so much on twisting facts for their own outcome, fear the most. They do not want Kerry in...the jig will be up and they know it!

after Rove is a complete mystery. If ever there was a man up to his eyeballs in slime, it's Rove.

| 9. How do you suggest someone go after him? |
|
Do you have any idea the number of Republicans who hate and fear him? But they can't do anything. The guy is untouchable as long as he has Bush around his finger. He forced John Weaver, the guy who ran McCain's campaign, essentially out of Republican politics.
The reality is, there's no way to go after him within his own party, let alone outside of it. Media pressure would work, but the vast majority of people don't know who Rove is and wouldn't care, so there's no story there. That's one of the reasons people like him are able to thrive: they live in the shadows. Unless he's caught in bed with a child, he isn't going anywhere.

| 13. Yes, with the Hatch Act |
|
Just having a political adviser in the WH is probably a violation of this act, but of course the media decided to ignore that when Bush appointed him.
But Rove made a big mistake last week on FAUX with Brit Hume. He told Hume that he does his own polling for the campaign. This type of activity from a senior member of the WH staff is a clear violation of the Hatch Act.
Maybe someone with some time and media contacts would like to make an issue of this? I'm sure we can find a lot of other examples of Rove violating this law, but the polling is the easy one to prove.

| 8. You are absolutely right! |

If you would care to peruse the last week of postings here at DU especially on GD you will find some of the finest minds available investigating all aspects of this rodent-infested crime family that has taken over our government as well as major percentages of the rest of the world. We are also being assisted by some key players from the CIA and FBI who have a particular dislike of these creatures, including Rove. Do what you can. With luck and a huge amount of very hard work, we shall win through. However the world will look very different when this is over.

No sense of decency, no respect for the norms and traditions that have kept our country's politics far from perfect, but in some kind of zone that Rove works outside of --

| 15. That's exactly right. |
|
college and has only gotten worse as the years passed by. He certainly doesn't operate within ETHICAL zones...that is quite clear. He's a dangerous, unethical piece of crap and one the Dems should have dealt with YEARS ago, not 2 months before the most important election of our lifetime.
He will do anything to win. I wouldn't doubt for a minute that this whole Electronic Voting Machine debacle is not the brainchild of KKKRove.
