Republicans Debate Rove’s Future at White House

HeadlineNov 03, 2005

The Washington Post is reporting several top colleagues of Karl Rove believe he should be dismissed from his position as President Bush’s chief advisor. The Post reports senior Republicans say Rove will have to at minimum issue an apology for making misleading statements about his role in the outing of CIA agent Valerie Plame. A Republican strategist who has discussed Rove’s future with top administration officials said: “Karl does not have any real enemies in the White House, but there are a lot of people in the White House wondering how they can put this behind them if the cloud remains over Karl. You can not have that [fresh] start as long as Karl is there.” Meanwhile, indicted White House aide Lewis Libby is set to make his first court appearance at an arraignment hearing in Washington today. Libby faces 5 charges including obstruction of justice and perjury in connection to the outing of Plame’s identity.
