Karl Rove vows a 'permanent' war. WHO ELECTED HIM????
Sorry, but who the hell is Karl Rove to be lecturing us on American policy? He promises US troops will stay there 'until victory is won'... meaning a genreational occupation for profit, damn the lives that will be lost. Don't tell me anymore that comparing this adminitration to Hitler is "over the top". Don't tell me that the continual demonization of gays, women, labor, non-Christians, and liberals is accidental, and don't tell me that the "evildoers" they are spying and eavesdropping on are just "Al Qaeda" boogeymen.

So, Bush's poll numbers are at 33%. Senator Feingold is on the right track. It is TIME for the Democrats to stand up and be patriots. CENSURE. IMPEACH.

=====
News item:

President Bush's top political adviser says the administration will not pull American troops out of Iraq until victory is won.

Karl Rove made the comment Saturday at Bowling Green State University. He spoke at a Republican fundraiser hosted by Representative Paul Gillmore, from northwest Ohio.

Rove says abandoning Iraq now would signal to US allies that America can't be trusted.

He says he came to Ohio to thank volunteers and local politicians who helped put Bush back in the White House two years ago.

5. Rove's position is only advisor, though, correct?
Of course, Cheney is the de facto President, maybe Rove is the de facto Veep.

7. Wasn't Rove the one that called the British Tory leader
and told him he was not welcome in the US because of his criticism of the Iraq war?

Who the fuck made Rove a US ambassador to the UK? What business does he have telling a foreign political representative ANYTHING?
