The democrats are pretty upset that the media is covering the Supreme Court nomination process more than they are covering the supposed problems with Karl Rove.
I have a couple of problems with this line of thinking:
1. A Supreme Court Nominee is something that isn't named very often. This is a big deal and will be extremely important for years and years to come. Karl Rove hinting at who might be a CIA spy is small in comparison.
2. Democrats are upset about this supposed breach in regards to Ms. Plame. Joe Wilson was being caught in numerous lies regarding his own CIA status and the jobs he had. He lied about how he got those jobs and he lied about not being affiliated with a certain political party. Karl Rove, no matter what Democrats want to continue saying, broke no law. The law states that it is illegal to "out" a covert opperative in the CIA. Ms. Plame was never classified as covert. What Rove did may have been wrong, but it was far from illegal.
Why are they upset with this, while they blew off what Sandy Berger did. Sandy Berger stole classified documents regarding the Clinton Administration's terror search, shreaded them and tried to cover it up. Where was the outrage on the Democrats side on this?
Politics, don'tcha love it?
