1. Something is happening SOON
Why else would they send this in advance? Is it an error, or foreshadowing?

2. The only reason AP runs your bio
is when something big is about to happen to you. Like getting indicted.

It's like the way they write your obituary before you die and then just plug in the correct date when the time comes..

3. Political Obit is just how Joshua Micah Marshall is calling it
Does this just-moved AP piece on Karl Rove look a bit like a political obit?

8. Suddenly I have this big smile on my face...
That's exactly what that is.

Rove-y Boy is getting indicted. Damn.

Couldn't happen to a more deserving f*ckhead.

Sure, I'd love to see a LONG list of fellow indictees. But if we can only have one, this is the one I want.
