Okay, so you're part of the Bush White House and you rape a nun.

[Cyrano]

If you were not a member of the Bush White House, you'd be sitting in a dungeon awaiting trial and hoping the lynch mob didn't find you.

However, since you are a member of the Bush White House, an investigation will be held into whether she was really a nun, did you actually rape her, and what did she do to provoke you. Meantime, you'd be back at work, helping to save the world.

So here we are, a couple of years later, waiting to find out whether or not Karl Rove is going to get indicted. And even if he does, it won't be for raping a nun, endangering national security, blowing the cover of a CIA agent which may have cost many of her mideast contacts their lives. No, it will be for something like lying to a grand jury or to investigators.

Too bad he wasn't smart enough to just settle for a blow job and leave evidence on a dress. Then again, he hasn't been indicted for anything yet, has he. So what the hell. Raping a nun, revealing a CIA agent's identity, blue dresses. As of right now it's all just speculation. Especially if you work in the Bush White House.

1. The only way to get them out of office...

...is to catch them with a live boy or a dead girl, as the old politician said.

2. The nun would publicly apologize

for all the embarassment she caused you.

(and she will be quietly grateful she did not step in front of your shotgun on a hunting trip)

3. Raping that nun...

would be a vital part of the war on terror.

5. Aha. The explaination that makes sense. Thank you Bornagainhooligan.

7. and you'd get a medal with the word "freedom" on it

Isn't that how it works? :shrug:

4. No big surprise, there has always been a two-tiered justice system at work

in this country. The first politician who says she'll do something about it AND MEANS IT, I'll go door to door for.

Until then, I'll continue to hope and pray for justice in the next world, because there sure isn't much in this one, IMHO.

6. The press would never report it. nt

8. How about supervising while they get tortured and thrown from helicopters?

Negroponte, while he was the the U.S. ambassador to Honduras, and the behavior of their CIA-trained death squads... generally CIA and State work fairly closely together in-country. Death-squads follow this man, from Vietnam on, everywhere he goes, and he's now our National Intelligence Director. I imagine if you raped one yourself, you'd get promoted to being VP or something.


In May 1982, a nun, Sister Laetitia Bordes, who had worked for ten years in El Salvador, went on a fact-finding delegation to Honduras to investigate the whereabouts of thirty Salvadoran nuns and women of faith who fled to Honduras in 1981 after Archbishop Óscar Romero's assassination. Negroponte claimed the embassy knew nothing about the nuns. However, in a 1996 interview with The Baltimore Sun, Negroponte's predecessor, Jack Binns, said that a group of Salvadorans, among whom were the women Bordes had been looking for, were captured on April 22, 1981, and savagely tortured by the DNI, the Honduran Secret Police, and then later thrown out of helicopters alive.

I wonder if Rove will be indicted for anything at all. Got my fingers crossed, but I'm not holding my breath.
