Reasons why Karl Rove has left the White House early is suggested in the Washington Post of 3 Sept 2007.
Quote:
Book Tells Of Dissent In Bush's Inner Circle
Rove, meanwhile, was not happy, Draper writes, with Bolten's decision to strip him of his oversight of policy at the White House, directing his focus instead to politics and the coming midterm elections. Bolten noticed that other staffers were "intimidated" by Rove, and Rove was seen as doing too much, "freelancing, insinuating himself into the message world . . . parachuting into Capitol Hill whenever it suited him." ...
In the CIA leak scandal, Rove assured Bush ... that he had known nothing about Valerie Plame ... "When Bush learned otherwise," he said, "he hit the roof."
