DNC Chair Howard Dean: "If Karl Rove had been indicted it would have been for perjury. That does not excuse his real sin which is leaking the name of an intelligence operative during the time of war. He doesn't belong in the White House. If the President valued America more than he valued his connection to Karl Rove then Karl Rove would have been fired a long time ago. So I think this is probably good news for the White House, but its not very good news for America."
DU suicide watch today!
And Joe Wilson .. he was telling the Kos Kids over the weekend how Rove was going down

Truthout.org was still standing by its story.
MSNBC's Keith Olbermann's page also carried no word on Rove being cleared, despite months of assuring his audience [ON MORE THAN 26 DIFFERENT PROGRAMS, ACCORDING TO NEXIS] how the Bush adviser faced indictment.

This is fun, ain't it?
Go check out DU for a steaming hot cup of schadenfreude today!

In related news, tiny tommie daschle and Harry Reid both announced that they were "deeply disappointed".
The idiot reporter on ABC radio said that the special prosecuter couldn't find a way to win the case so he dropped the charges. *steam, coming out of ears*
Wow! But what about those sealed indictments? They were the sugarplums dancing in the liberals' heads. Weeping and gnashing of teeth today. Savor it!
The MEDIA SPIN is that Rove is guilty and the prosecutor knows he's guilty but in a display of prosecutorial deference the prosecutor won't prosecute because although he knows Rove is guilty he unfortunately doesn't have sufficient evidence to win the case, but Rove is still guilty.
