Send Karl Rove His Pink Slip!

An excellent action. From the diaries--Chris

Rather than just do the petition, I decided it was time to take action.  I hope you'll recommend this entry so others can send Rove their own personalized pink slip.

It is time to hold the President accountable. He promised the American people that he'd fire whoever leaked the identity of Valerie Plame, an undercover CIA agent. Now that we know the leaker was, at least in part, Karl Rove; it is time for the President to keep his word.

I have started a campaign to send along our own pink slips to Karl Rove because the President refuses to do it himself.  If the White House ends up knee deep in pink paper, perhaps the President will finally give Mr. Rove the legitimate pink slip he so greatly deserves.

Continued Reading in the Extended Entry.

Imagine the attention we'd get if members of Congress and other concerned Americans delivered 100,000 pink slips to the White House.  That would be a power image with an even more powerful message.

Karl Rove should be fired and prosecuted to the full extent of the law. There can be no gray area here. Regardless of how he phrased it, regardless of how much detail he provided; he revealed the identity of an undercover CIA agent. What Mr. Rove did is reprehensible. Putting the life of an undercover CIA agent in jeopardy cannot be tolerated. He clearly deserves his pink slip, and we're going to give it to him.

I hope you will join me by clicking the link below and sending along your own personalized pink slip to Karl Rove at the White House.  President Bush must keep his word and fire Mr. Rove.

P.S. It is our goal to have 100,000 personalized pink slips for Mr. Rove in the next few days.  Be sure to tell everyone you know about our effort.  Together we can really shake things up at the White House.

Send Karl Rove to jail!!! (none / 0)

This is treason and federal offense.
Besides telling us how to live, think, marry, pray, vote, invest, educate our children and, die, the GOP has done a fine job of getting gov't out of our lives.

Any concern about public opinion? (none / 0)

Fact is, no matter how treasonous Rove turns out to be (the Rove we all know and loathe is clearly capable of much more than this), there's a pretty good chance that, outside of the die-hards, people just won't care.  Is there any indication that Joe Registered Voter knows enough about what this breach means to cast any significant judgment on Rove?

While actually mounting a smear campaign would ease my mind a bit, the smear squad would have to be bipartisan, or the battle becomes he-said, she-said, who-can-get-the-most-media-time.  And we know all too well here, the battle is always more that just right and wrong, even when it's clear.

I hope the DNC can respond to this fast (none / 0)

They link to an article by the WSJ where they claim it was Wilson who lied about what he found in Niger. They claim Wilson lied he was appointed by Cheney. They claim Rove should be seen as a whistleblower. All this on the GOP site. Why aren't the democrats fighting back and get some retractions if there any falshoods.
