In my opinion, Rove leaving the Bush administration is no great loss. Karl Rove will leave George Bush’s side this month and is one of the most controversial political figures. While he can claim credit for political victories he is also accused of policy failures and divisiveness. Many Republicans believe that Rove used a strategy that divided the country and tried to overhaul Social Security when his party did not want to. He also pushed Bush to accuse Democrats of dangerous shortcomings on national security. Will Executive Privilege follow him? Democrats want him to testify on numerous congressional investigations. Rove is a shining example of the kind of people with whom Bush has surrounded himself.
