Good Riddance, Mr. Rove

Today, White House Deputy Chief of Staff, and senior advisor to President George Walker Bush has done the thing he should have done years ago: HE QUIT!

Sure, we have to put up with his fat ass for another 18 days, but while I count down the days until we're finally rid of this vermin, let us count thee ways he- and for thart matter, Bushie junior, has botched up our country.

First off, Rove was largely responsible for putting the current don of corruption into the White House- in 2000 when Bush- in the eyes of many- stole the election, and again in 2004. In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, he oversaw the 'damage control' effort- you know, while folks were drowning in New Orleans, Bush and his crime gang, which of course includes Rove, were barbecuing in Texas.

And then, there's the CIA agent leak of (now) former employee Valerie Plame. While I. "Scooter" Lewis Libby was indicted and subsequently convicted of perjury and obstruction of justice, Rove- according to many- got away scot free.

And now the man who basically ran the presidency of George Walker Bush- albeit in the ground (but running it nonetheless)- has decided to spend more time with his family, effective the last day of this month.

Anybody out there believe that?...

Neither do I.

I learned today, as I looked at Wikipedia in preparation for this, that Rove supported another crook- Richard Nixon- beginning at age nine. He worked for his idol during the 1972 Presidential campaign, as you will see at the 4:10 mark of this clip from CBS News.

Scums...er, Rumsfeld. Trash...um, Ashcroft. Now Rove.

The George W. Bush crime syndicate falls apart. One cabinet member and/or administration member at a time.

But, in closing, I can't help but wonder if ol' Rove felt the noose tightening around his neck. The noose of a lot of us finding out the truth about a lot of criminal acts the Dubya administration have committed- and are still committing to this day.

Good riddance, Rove.
