Why Haven't Scooter, rOVER, etc., Resigned Yet?

[Dinger]

Question I just heard discussed on MSNBC. I can't figure it out - anybody out there have an idea?

[napi21]

1. Why would they? Even we know all of what we've heard so far

is rumor and supposition.

Although I'd like to see them both gone, I can't fault them for not resigning in advance of any charges!

2. Admittance of guilt.

Not to mention that Rove will never resign unless he goes to prison. They need him too much.

3. see this DU thread also.

4. Because the want to create

a constitutional crisis.

They have no respect for anyone or anything, not even the office of the President and they don't care who they take down in the process.

5. Because they have no shame.

6. If only they'd just admit it... we're forgiving people...

7. We don't know if they have been indicted, for one thing.

9. But it'd be for the good of the country!!

8. They know that the bar will be again lowered to "convicted"

and when they are convicted , the bar will be re-set to "imprisoned", while they file appeal after appeal..

[Gatchaman]

11. I don't want to see them resign

I want to see Commander Kookoo Bananas have to fire them.

[ClassWarrior]

14. Me neither. It's much more damaging for them if the nation's calling...

...for their resignations, and they just refuse. It's the culture of corruption and cronyism.

12. and then, after that

they'll get book deals and their very own talk radio or TV programs.

10. They could do it tonight, say about Midnight. nt

13. maybe they argued that if they quit no one would be left to orchestrate

their defense, exonerations, the media distraction and the eventual pardons.......And they would sing like canaries.

It's like throwing hit men out of the mob.
