I find it pretty telling that you find it so amusing. :rolleyes If you read what I said, I explained exactly what I thought you were saying, and asked how someone becoming "above the law" because of past witch hunts could be percieved as a good thing. Particularly when said person is a conservative strategist and you have described yourself in the past as a liberal. If you can't see why I'd find that confusing then you are too focused on winning an internet argument, when I'm not even fucking arguing. :rolleyes

You read WAY too much into my statements.

I dunno, Rove very well may be full of shit. If he's guilty of a crime, then I think he'll be punished. That's the whole deal to me.

Rove is almost certainly guilty of a crime, as is a good 3/4 of Washington. The real question is whether he was sloppy enough to get caught and if the crime was big enough to warrant punishment.

Furthermore, I would like to add that I am 100% in agreement with you here. I just didn't understand that that's what you were saying.

and just for good measure :rolleyes

this entire "scandal" is intensely boring.

No, I don't at all. I think the problem is that you like to cut and run on your statements.

I understand what you were confused about, you mis-read it. I get that. I still say it's pretty funny that a scandal over Karl Rove, being pretty much devoid of any sort of ideological significance, comes down to such "good vs. evil" implications for you. Hence the "HA HA".

I find you quite tedious, Kevintheomnivore. :posh
