And yes, Karl Rove is friends with the Swedish PM and has been Sweden. Airc, Rove was wanted by Congress for questioning a few years ago. Anyone know what happened to all of that? He was subpoenaed but refused to show up. I believe he went to Sweden and was then 'out of the country' so used it as one of his excuses for refusing to answer subpoenas.

I thought once we got rid of the Bush gang, something would done to follow up on all those hearings. But instead, things got worse, the hearings disappeared altogether and Rove, once again got off the hook.

There are no charges filed against Assange in Sweden. They've had at least one and a half years to get their act together if there ever was a case. The fact that they have not makes a mockery of all this garbage about 'extradition'.

Now, if I'm looking to get on a wooden ship, he's definitely the man for that.
