Where are Rove's GOP defenders?

So the White House is being silent on Rove today...where's the rest of the GOP? What does Ken Mehlman have to say about his mentor? What about John McCain? Chuck Hagel? Bill Frist? Even Tom Delay?

C'mon, Republicans...Karl is your guy. You loved what he said about liberals and Dick Durbin a couple weeks ago.

Defend Karl Rove now. Defend his actions.

Explain how blowing the cover of an undercover CIA operative is okay if its for political payback.

Explain how national security benefitted from Karl Rove's actions.

Explain why George Bush shouldn't keep his word about firing whoever leaked Plame's name.

The GOP is never silent on national security issues. Until now.
