Did Gonzales Kill Fitz's Rove Indictments? - DailyKOS
<snip>

Last Friday, Judge Reggie Walton, the presiding judge in the Libby trial, deliberated over a case titled "SEALED v. SEALED." There is growing speculation that sealed v. sealed is Fitzgerald v. Gonzales' Deputy, Paul McNulty (Fitzgerald's direct superior).

The Wayne Madsen Report and the Chris Matthews Show have both floated the theory that Fitzgerald had secured indictments against Rove, but Gonzales --via McNulty-- came in at the last second and used his power as Fitzgerald's superior to kill the indictments.

IF, this theory is true, Fitzgerald would have likely challenged McNulty's decision in court, pointing to an earlier administrative directive from then acting Attorney General James Comey that gave Fitzerald the "authority of the Attorney General." Comey is long gone, however, and was replaced by McNulty. The question then becomes what, if any, value does Comey's administrative directive have today.

Theories abound, no?

Gettin paid once a month really sucks!

Will be re-upping after the first, and will be able to lessen my dupe-licitousness, LOL!

I usually do a search before posting, so as not to do the dupe.

Ah well... broke is, as broke does!

P.S. Dear Mods... feel free to delete!
