One thing is for certain – Bush has used the federal government as a political pawn more than any other President. Here is even more proof of it:

During a whirlwind five-hour trip to bolster an endangered GOP congressman’s reelection prospects, White House political guru Karl Rove last week delivered a fiery speech to 500 party activists, then shook every available hand and posed for snapshots like a rock star. He toured suburbs recently trashed by a snowstorm. He also found time to huddle with local strategists.

But the most significant element of Rove’s effort to help four-term Rep. Thomas M. Reynolds keep his job may have occurred behind closed doors, when the White House strategist met with a federal disaster relief official contemplating how to respond to the storm. Four days later, Reynolds announced that President Bush would authorize millions of dollars in federal disaster aid for the area.

That is not the key part however. Further down in the article you get to the smoking gun:

Instead, Rove is giving a virtuoso performance designed to prevent the Democrats from taking control of the House and Senate or, if that is no longer possible, to hold down the size of the Democratic victory to make it easier for the GOP to come back in 2008. His plan is three-pronged: to reenergize any conservatives who may be flagging; to make sure the GOP’s carefully constructed campaign apparatus is functioning at peak efficiency; and to put the resources of the federal government to use for political gain.

(emphasis mine).

Federal law prohibits using government resources for political gain. Once again we have a White House admitting they do not care about the law. First we learned about how Bush used the Department of Faith Based Initiatives for purely political purposes and now this. Yes the Democrats need to investigate when they get control. Yes if it comes down to them breaking the law then we must impeach (remember – these are the same practices the Soviets used. Think of the political officers they stationed on their ships). Yes – if the investigation merits it then all must be prosecuted. Again – this is our nation at risk. This is the United States being held hostage by the abusive powers of the President and we can not allow it to go on.
