Karl Rove's buddy resigns post as WH Counsel

Greg Craig has finally been pushed out as White House Counsel. But we can thank him for all of his efforts in crafting what has come to be known as the "deal with the devil" - the deal between Karl Rove and the House Judiciary Committee.

Here are some snips from an article I did on the deal:

A deal brokered by the Obama White House to obtain Karl Rove’s testimony before the House Judiciary Committee contains a number of unusual provisions, prominent legal scholars say.

Rove testified before the Judiciary Committee on July 7 concerning his alleged involvement in the December 2006 firings of seven US Attorneys and the prosecution of Don Siegelman. The Committee is being extremely tight-mouthed about the result, and Rove himself has also declined to comment.
