Venting a little ‘Rove rage’

Re “Keep on talking, Mr. Rove,” editorial, July 15

Isn’t it about time for Americans to stop screaming at each other in traffic and direct their anguish at the White House, where it might actually do some good? [Karl] Rove rage, that’s what we need. Let ‘em hear it!

Here’s the issue I don’t see anyone questioning: The Bush administration’s smear attempt on former Ambassador Joe Wilson -- saying that his findings lacked credibility because his wife sent him to Niger -- doesn’t make sense. How do you link who sent him with what he found out? They want us to believe what? That he found out the claim Saddam Hussein was trying to buy yellowcake from Africa was false only because of who sent him to investigate? The administration has admitted Wilson’s findings were true. Then-CIA Director George Tenet admitted the claim should never have made it to the State of the Union address. So the issue of who sent Wilson to Niger is moot.
