14. Because he deserves it? These are Repukes, after all...
They almost never get what they deserve when they deserve it, if they get it at all. If that were the case, Rove, *, Cheney, Rice, etc. would have been out on their asses long ago. Bastards.

Rove's indictment is coming, and it is coming soon. I feel it!!! :evilgrin:

5. It might be higher than that
By the way, I don't know how Fitzgerald feels about it, but there is nothing in the Constitution that would prevent the President from being indicted.

3. The question seem to be if I believe Rove will be indicted
Edited on Mon May-15-06 03:07 PM by Jack Rabbit
EDITED for typing

The answer is yes. Even if Mr. Leopold is incorrect in his reporting, all the signs point to it happening soon (which is also why I tend to believe Mr. Leopold is right).

9. There is so much more going on-Abramoff, Goss, Foggo, Wilkins,
Libby, Abu Ghraib-the "retirements" and "resignations", the mysterious deaths and accidents, the crimes of the George W. Bush administration are going to begin to be prosecuted (it's long overdue).

8. Yes. First, the story cannot be a Rove plant, as some have suggested...
...because

A) if it were, Rove would be vigorously knocking it down, now, as that would be the whole reason for setting it up in the first place

and

B) Rove would only have planted the story if he were sure that he wouldn't be indicted, and I don't see how he can be certain of any such thing.

Second, five trips to the Grand Jury and all of the information that has developed from the investigation, so far, point to a Rove indictment.

11. Not at this time.
Edited on Mon May-15-06 03:10 PM by Wheres The Beef
It looks like all the activity last week was regarding Libby's upcoming trial. Questions centered on Cheney's handwritten notes, and that could be a red herring. Why wouldn't those notes have been shredded? How would Cheney have allowed them to be turned over if he thought they could hurt him? Of course Libby may have retained them and is using them for his defense.

15. 'Cause ABC did the "NSA Spied on the Press" story today.
This is how Rove and the WH operate. If a really bad story is about to break, they will attempt to hide it by creatinga flashier story, one that is designed to capture the attention of the press and create more smoke (but less actual damage for the administration and W.). And the press is narcissistic and loves to report on itself.

16. You mean, "Yes, want it to happen", or "Yes, predict it will happen"?
Jeez.
