It was a major loss for Bush as he heads into the twilight of his presidency, battered in the polls, facing a hostile Democratic Congress and waging an unpopular war. A half dozen other senior advisers have left in recent months, forcing the White House to rebuild its staff at the same time the president is running out of influence. “I’ll be on the road behind you here in a little bit,” said a rueful Bush, announcing the departure alongside Rove on the White House South Lawn. Bush leaves office Jan. 20, 2009. Gee, what could possibly be the mystery as to why he would leave, what with all the honest testimony of this administration's Alberto Gonzalez? I guess even Karl Rove is getting tired of associating himself with liars (amazing, but maybe true). |
