From The Very Beginning... Whom Did You Suspect Leaked The Name?

[arwalden]

Personally... I always KNEW it was Rove. And I'm not just saying that because it's now a "safe" bet. Even without proof... I absolutely knew in my heart that it was he.

What about you?

[meegbear]

1. I thought it was Powell

He never seemed gung ho about the war and I figured this could be a "Deep Throat" way of helping to stop it.

[seabeyond]

2. CHENEY and rove n/t

[GreenPartyVoter]

22. Ayuh, Tricky Dick Jr is always hanging out at the CIA building.

[Dhalgren]

3. I always thought that it would wind up being Scooter Libby

or someone in the VP's office. I just didn't think Rove was stupid enough to do it himself - I should know to never underestimate the stupidity of these yahoos...

[alphafemale]

6. Seconded. Scooter or someone else close to Rove.

Someone more expendable.

[peace frog]

7. Ditto

[Totally Committed]

8. I thought it was Scooter Libby ------> Novak, but

I also thought it was Rove -----> Scooter Libby ------> Novak, and as usual, Rove would never be found out.

The fact that he is even being mentioned in the press as a link is a shock to me.

I just hope they can make this stick. He needs to get gone.

4. cheney directed rove to do it

ultimately cheney should be the one to pay for treason.

[FourStarDemocrat]

5. I thought the leak came from Cheney's office...

And it still may have. Someone had to tell Rove. Rove didn't have access to info on covert operatives. This is deeper than Rove.

11. I agree, and I think Rove's hubris

led him to spread it further because he believed he was immune from having to answer for any of his behaviour, ever. He may still slide on this, because he's one slimy little weasel.

9. I thought it was Rove

when Wilson said he thought it was Rove.

[ck4829]

10. Karl Rove

But, now I am beginning to think that someone leaked the name to Rove.

[mwb970]

12. I thought it was Dick and Scooter. (n/t)

[Evergreen Emerald]

13. I also think it was Cheney's office

And the timing of Cheney being completely out of site recently is interesting.

[Dhalgren]

16. Man, that's an aspect of all of this that I had not considered!

Cheney is mighty scarce these days, isn't he? LOFL!

[TahitiNut]

14. WHIG ... without a doubt.

:shrug:

[emulatorloo]

15. Rove, authorized by Bush

Because it is the kind of nastiness those two always cook up.

[Mist]

17. Cheney, via Libby n/t

[ernstbass]

18. Cheney - no doubt in my mind

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

19. Rove nt

[mohinoaklawnillinois]

20. I've always believed that the pissant, chickenhawk

Dick Cheney was the one who outed Ms. Plame with help from Lewis "Scooter" Libby.

Completely off topic but can someone please explain to me why these characters always have such childish nicknames. I mean what mature man would want to be known as "Scooter"? Beats the hell out of me...

[arwalden]

21. Does "Scooter" Make You Think Of...

a a small two-wheeler, or a dog that slides his itchy butt across the carpet?

[ComerPerro]

23. Cheney or Rove

[proud patriot]

24. I had no idea until the "frog march out of the W H" quote from Wilson

They are all so corrupt it was hard to pick .

[in_cog_ni_to]

25. KKKRove. n/t

[xxqqqzme]

26. I thought saurove as well

never thought it would see the light of day or that we would ever know - kinda like that anthrax thing.

[leftofthedial]

27. rove-cheney-bush

among them, you'd figure the rovester would actually be dialing the phone.

[goclark]

28. It was all of them IMO

You can talk with your eyes and your gestures.

Thes gang of thives hs so closely tied to the media that they don't have to speak with their mouths.
Novak probably could mention to Colin or Cheney, "do you believe what I just heard about Plame" and they would just smiles.
