I am unaware of any Republican Senator or Representative who has come out and demanded Rove and Libby resign, or at the very least step down until the Plame Affair has been concluded. Have you heard of one? If so, please tell me, because I'd like to know.
I understand the President is a putz and appears ready to gamble the balance of his Presidency on what Mr. Fitzgerald does, but I can't believe there aren't a couple of responsible Republican Congressman who would put their country before their party. I suspect Mr. Lincoln would be pretty disgusted with the lack of courage within the Republican party to get rid of the bums who compromised America's National Security, particularly during a time of war. Unfortunately, we hear silence from many or excuses from some (McCain comes to mind), but the effect of their inaction has been to protect the Republican Party even if to do so could compromise National Security.
