You can bet if he ever was convicted he'd receive a full presidential pardon. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/05/29/mcclellans-biggest-revela_n_104082.html Remember when Bush stood up in front of the American people and swore those that were responsible for the leak would be prosecuted? What happened to that promise?
Me too Ari it points out that the checks and balances the founding fathers installed in our constitution no longer work. There no longer seem to be a freedom of the press, a freedom of speech, or rights of the individual. It points out a loss of something that many fought hard amd thought long to forge, to be lost through lies, that only serve to profit a minority and not the social good. And hardly any spoke out. The losss of societal and individual rights to me seems much more heinous than the threat of a foreign terrorists. Maybe I am misinterpreting your take Ari, but this is my take.
I wonder, maybe the lack of action against bush administration officials over the past few years was because it would be better to wait until a democrat was president? This would explain why the current policy of the democrats seems to be more about containment and information gathering.
If you want to arrest Rove, then throw in Ted Kennedy for murder. He left that chick in the car to die. Let's send a message to the rich-even they have to answer to the law.

He's in the Crimea. Convenient with all this going on with Russia. http://notionscapital.wordpress.com/2008/07/12/karl-in-the-crimea-rove-not-marx/
I don't see how bringing in Ted Kennedy's wrong doings have any bearing on what Karl Rove did in outing a CIA agent, something Bush promised to punish. In fact the way I view it, to out an intelligence officer during an armed conflict against terrorism, it should be seen as the act of a traitor. Kennedy should have been arrested and served time in jail instead of the senate, but his situation has no bearing on this issue.
Actually he may be totally off the hook, in as much as his contempt charge was over the firings of judges. It's now been found that some crimes by this administration aren't actually crimes. http://www.crooksandliars.com/2008/08/13/attorney-general-tells-aba-not-every-crime-is-a-crime/
