Rove Resigns

Well, I'm happy, but like Iggy Sr, for a different reason than most. As other members of the inner circles of Bush's group have learned in the past, the assumed (and relatively unchallenged) "Executive Privilege" claim is no longer valid for members who've left the administration (DUH!).

Rove will now be subject (moreso than before) to the full range of powers that Congress will bring to the table to coerce answers from Mr. Rove. I'm pretty happy about this one, I must say. We'll see if the Democrats take the chance or throw the ball away.
