Rove has many counts, his own admission, and I think lying about Novak [View All]

[symbolman]

Suddenly it hit me.. something had been bugging me as I researched Rove's role in the Plame outing (I'm working on a short version of the Downing Street Minutes hearing, etc for House Parties Conyers is holding all over the US on July 23rd) and how it ties in with the DSM/Treason by this White House, Bush & Crew..

Something doesn't add up here:

*************

President Bush's chief political adviser, Karl Rove,

--->told the FBI<---

in an interview last October that he circulated and discussed damaging information regarding CIA operative Valerie Plame with others in the White House, outside political consultants, and journalists, according to a government official and an attorney familiar with the ongoing special counsel's investigation of the matter.

But Rove also adamantly insisted to the FBI that he was not the administration official who leaked the information that Plame was a covert CIA operative to conservative columnist Robert Novak last July. Rather, Rove insisted,

----------> he had only circulated information about Plame after it had appeared in Novak's column.<-----------------


He also told the FBI, the same sources said, that circulating the information was a legitimate means to counter what he claimed was politically motivated criticism of the Bush administration by Plame's husband, former Ambassador Joseph Wilson.

And NOW here's Newsweek:

"But according to Luskin, Rove's lawyer, Rove spoke to Cooper
--->three or four days before Novak's column appeared."<---

So WHO told Novak? Cheney? Condi? BUSH?

Also, it appears that Karl is lying here in some fashion, but even if he isn't one thing he HAS ADMITTED to is telling MANY people about PLAME --

That sure sounds like MULTIPLE COUNTS of committing a crime, a pattern which shows INTENT as well..

I think this is going to be one big stinky mess before it's through, and I'm loving it :)

Thoughts?
