Leak? What Leak?

From the moment the Karl Rove story exploded over the weekend, I've been intensely curious as to what tack the conservatives would take.
This is a big political embarrassment, no question about it, and while Scott McClellan could try the old can't-comment-during-the-investigation (though he had earlier denied any Rove involvement during the same investigation), what would the denizens of the right do?
I tuned into O'Reilly and Hannity on Monday night, but there was no mention, none, of the Rove/Plame affair. Imagine if an e-mail had surfaced showing that a top aide to Clinton--say, Sid Blumenthal--had told a reporter about a covert CIA agent. Would those Fox shows have given the controversy a bit of air time? (Last night, O'Reilly said "some in the media are foaming" over the story but did call on Rove to "clear the air," then hosted Newt Gingrich, who attacked Joe Wilson. Hannity said Rove "wasn't on a witchhunt" because Matt Cooper called him , and guest G. Gordon Liddy ripped Cooper and said Valerie Plame wasn't really undercover. At least the show had a liberal guest, Bill Press, who got overheated in accusing Rove of "treason" and saying he "should be marched off to prison." No trial, Bill?)

The way I read it is the Judge is weighing the deal that was made and the crime committed and has an option to reject it outright or may go ahead and accept it and mete out punishment as recommended by the prosecutors or perform a variation of their own.
Oh, Dear Lord! What insanity!!
lmao.....thanks for the laugh.
It's not just you.........
Seeing those nasty reporters on TV, made me ill. John Roberts, David Gregory........and their nastiness do nothing but show the American people how biased they are.
Apparently, Dan Rather has a "super top secret" training camp somewhere. Since Rove ran them out of Texas, I'd guess Alexandria as their new home base.
Could someone check on the "frequency"?
I wouldn't believe Harold said, his dear Uncle his up to his ankles in fraud.
re the 'berglars' sentence:
I believe the hearing is delayed, but haven't heard hardly anything lately.
A $10,000 fine was mentioned a lot earlier. Seems like a loose-noose would be more appropiate!
I like your guess of Dan i'd(Rather)lie running a "terroreporterist" training camp...
er..... I mean a "super top secret" training camp!
Humans leak.
< (Actually, Wilson was right about the bogus Niger uranium tale, and the White House was wrong, although his credibility did take a hit from a critical Senate intelligence committee report.)
Once his credibility was "hit" the committee needed to pack its bags. After that how can anything he says be credible?
Even in a court case, jurors are instructed that if you feel someone has lied on one point, you can discount "anything" else they said.
