From the press release: “All Democrats on the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) today joined Congressman John F. Tierney (D-MA), the only New England Member of HPSCI, to call on President George Bush to revoke White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove’s security clearances and access to classified information. In a letter to the President, all nine Democrats on the Committee urged him to take immediate action.”


The letter [PDF format] is signed by all Democrats on the committee, including Rep. Jane Harman and Rep. Rush Holt.


A couple hours ago, I watched on C-SPAN as Rep. Holt spoke on the floor of the House along with Wash. state Rep. Jay Inslee, a longtime friend of former Ambassador Joseph Wilson. Rep. Inslee organized the forum at which Amb. Wilson first suggested that Karl Rove be “frog-marched” out of the White House.


OUR JOB: Spread the word on this. There isn’t a single news story on this press conference, release, or letter via Google or Yahoo news searches.

“It is outrageous that even though Mr. Rove has acknowledged, through his attorney, that he disclosed the identity of a covert intelligence officer, he continues to have access to our nation’s highest level of classified intelligence,” said Congressman John Tierney.
