The reason behind Rove criticisms

The Bush bashers are at it again with their Karl Rove rants. Individuals are calling for Rove's dismissal before the investigation is completed.

Let's examine some of the breaches of security performed by Democrats. Former Democratic Rep. and later Sen. Robert Toricelli in 1995 leaked the name of a paid CIA informant, Col. Julio Roberto Alpirez (from Guatemala), to The New York Times. There was no hue and cry for Toricelli's head.

Recently, we have had Sandy Berger stuffing classified documents into his pants and socks. Berger didn't leak these -- he destroyed them. This is obstruction of justice.

Just a short time ago, Sen. John Kerry during the Bolton confirmation hearings "outed" a real CIA undercover agent, Fulton Armstrong, despite a request from the CIA that his name remain a secret. Should Kerry also be fired?

Take a look at Valerie Plame. First, her neighbors said that she made no secret that she worked at the CIA. Second, Ms. Plame has not been an undercover agent for many years. Further, she and her husband are Democratic supporters. The real reason Democrats are so eager to get Rove is because of his success in getting Republicans elected.
