Below is the last chapter of a new article in the Atlantic Monthly's Sept. issue. Its written by Joshua Green who was just Anderson Cooper. From way Green spoke, I suspect the article is very interesting. He said tonite that he was very surprised that Rove was leaving this early and that he is being pushed out for failing to shape a successful domestic policy for Bush. That would explain his shaky voice and near tears today.

The Bush administration made a virtual religion of the belief that if you act boldly, others will follow in your wake. That certainly proved to be the case with Karl Rove, for a time. But for all the fascination with what Rove was doing and thinking, little attention was given to whether or not it was working and why. This neglect encompasses many people, though one person with far greater consequences than all the others. In the end, the verdict on George W. Bush may be as simple as this: He never questioned the big, booming voice of Oz, so he never saw the little man behind the curtain.
