I say we should stake him to an anthill and throw little pickles at him! (Selena)
Kenyon, Sherrilyn. Night Embrace. St. Martin's Paperbacks, 2003.
Although politics can get very rough, Rove took revenge for disagreement or what he perceived as disloyalty to an extreme that was new to the American experience. In one case, to punish an ex ambassador who had made public statements disagreeing with George W. Bush’s policy, Rove leaked the fact that the ambassador’s wife was a covert CIA agent, thus blowing her cover, ending her career, and endangering her life and the lives of some of her contacts. Rove pretended to be a devoted Christian for political image, his behavior towards opponents was far from Christian and his language as can be seen by this quote was not consonant with a religious person’s behavior.

While there were atrocities committed by both sides in the Civil War, the proportion tended to be heavily weighted by Confederate perpetrations. The Confederate officers were not appointed by the command structure and under strict military discipline, but they were elected by the troops and could be so removed (except for the general officers who were appointed by the confederacy). Also, the confederate troops were not as well fed or supplied as the North and they had fewer resources with which to fulfill their obligations to prisoners. In a number of battles, ill-clothed soldiers stripped the Union dead, wounded and prisoners, often naked to use their shoes, blankets and clothing, Union prisoners of war were much more badly abused in the prisoners of war camps like Andersonville which were not under the command of Robert E. Lee.

A number of the American soldiers refused to obey Calley's illegal order. Some helped some villagers to escape, and a helicopter pilot landed betreen Callery's men and the villagers they were shooting at, and ordered his helicopter machine gun crew to fire on the soldiers if they did back off. The soldiers stopped firing at the civillians. However, his and other reports of the massacre were covered up by the military for a few years. Mai Lai was not the only major war crime perpetrated by Americans in the Vietnam War; there had been a few others. But given the years of fighting and the many opportunities war crimes violations under orders were quite rare. The Viet Cong had many more war crimes that they perpetrated, and our South Vietnamese allies repeatedly committed war crimes against their own people.
