Red Rover, Red Rover, Can Karl Come Over?

Digby was right, Rove's taint was all over the fired prosecutors from the start.

The president did not call for the removal of any specific United States
attorneys, said Dana Perino, a White House spokeswoman. She said she had “no
indication” that the president had been personally aware that a process was
already under way to identify prosecutors who would be fired.
But Ms Perino
disclosed that White House officials had consulted with the Justice Department
in preparing the list of United States attorneys who would be removed.

...

The idea of dismissing federal prosecutors originated in the White House more than a year earlier, White House and Justice officials said Monday.

The White House can keep playing its ponzi game, but these facts together too nicely. Rove has demonstrated that he cannot govern; all he can do is further amass Republican power and slime the opposition. This is a perfect example of the kind of sleazy thing he would do to win elections.

I hope John Conyers will be calling Rove over soon.
