You sound excited about that prospect.

I don't think it means anything other than the press expects indictments (we already knew that)and they want to protect their new hero from attack. The reverse of the Starr treatment.
To: irons_player
Don't worry, Rove is in the clear. Any other indictments are meaningless. The lefties only care about Rove. The best part will be the investigation into the CIA roll after this.

If he decides not to indict anyone, I am going to laugh my head off at the lamestream media.

As long as he continues to support the liberal's agenda, and play their game by (potentially) prosecuting a republican, he will continue to get the liberal media's (and the democrat's/Washington insider's - but I repeat myself) loving support.
Remember how the same loving media turned oh-so-vicious and ruthless against Ken Starr for prosecuting a "democrat" who DID commit crimes in office.

"He drafted a letter that nudged the witness and needled I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, the vice president's chief of staff."
More like he got tired of Miller's waiver games and asked Libby too play along with her "personal" waiver gambit.
She copied Cooper's gameplan to excuse her conduct. At least with Cooper, he might have believed Rove's words "double super secret", or whatever, deserved a "special" waiver.

The RATS are really sucking up to this guy. I hope he disappoints them badly.

This article begins with a lie. Libby gave Miller a waiver so she could testify, a year before she went to jail. It was Miller's choice to ignore that waiver and refuse to testify. The bottom line is that Miller is a weird duck, as recent nasty reporting in the
New York Times has demonstrated.
It is clear that the elements to prove violation of the "protect the covert operative" statute are not present. No one is going to get indicted for that, because the crime itself never occurred. It would be like charging bank robbery against a customer who walked in, and then walked out, without taking a single penny.
The only question is whether Fitzgerald will bring charges of perjury or obstruction against anyone -- including anyone in the press, Miller not excepted. And after that question comes the one whether anyone will ever be convicted of anything.
I'm willing to wager that NO ONE will be convicted of ANYTHING. However, the way the American press works, the story is the indictment, and the trial. Guilt is absolutely irrelevant.

I'm beginning to think the WH leaked that Rove and Libby might be indicted just to see the left go crazy when they weren't.
Hey, George W. was brought up in a CIA household, with his father as Chief. He knows how to play.

could you imagine the washington compost publishing something like about kenn starr? in a million years?

Well, seems they are chasing down the forgetting of a conversation while under oath about an issue that wasn't a crime.
Seems a strange deal to me. (according to what I heard on Sean H.)

He drafted a letter that nudged the witness and needled I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, the vice president's chief of staff. Three days later, Libby put fingers to keyboard and told New York Times reporter Judith Miller that she was freed from her promise to protect his identity. He also allowed Miller to avoid telling all that she knew (her other sources) and accepted "I don't remember" as a good answer as to where Miller got the name "Flame". It seems that the only puff revealed so far is Fitzgerald.
To: irons_player
The left is building this up, so that when it comes crashing down they can yell that he was "gotten to" by the WH. Dean let the cat out of the bag yesterday with his comments that if no indictments are made, he wouldn't accept that.

Press puff piece on Fitzgerald which means bad news for the administration
Nope. Just more of the wishful thinking "Here is what I want the story to be" by pretend journalists. Remember the "Army is bogged down in Iraq and cut off from it's supply lines" reporting in March 2003? This is just more media manufactured hysteria. The "Conventional Wisdom" in DC rarely, turns out to be either conventional or wise. Conservative simply must get better at remembering how many time the story turns out to be some what different then the the speculation. I suspect that it will fall in the middle, Not as good as Repbs want, not as bad as Dems hope.

I was listening to the RNC parrot today and he was doing his damnest to denigrate and trash Fitzgerald. I have also seen other sources trashing him. I find this very distasteful and very Liberal & Democratic. I know nothing about Fitzgerald, but I want to think he is doing what he thinks and believes is right. As for his partisanship, If it turns out he is on a witch hunt, then we should call him. But I think it is way too early for that.

If the suggested indictments are brought then someone in the GJ or Fitzgerald's office is giving the press inside information. We will see. I wish I could be optimistic but I'm not. I don't trust Fitzgerald or any other Democrat to be anything else than what they are......
