Michigan Lawyers and Politicians (including Hillary!) fall for Rove rumors hook, line, and sinker.
Detroit Free Press, MSNBC, Wonkette ^ | May 15, 2006 | DesScorp

Multiple news sites are reporting that a gathering of lawyers in Michigan, with Governor Granholm and Hillary Clinton in attendance, erupted in a standing ovation. Why? Someone got the rumor from Truthout.org that Karl Rove had been indicted, and everyone took it on faith that it was true. Wonkette put it like this:

“Truthout” is not quite the most trusted news source in our bloglines list. So, while they did announce on Saturday that Karl Rove has been indicted, we’re not particularly inclined to believe it, especially as it is now Monday, and not even Raw Story has picked it up. Sorry, better luck with your next bout of wishful (if slightly likely) speculation.


Boy, are Hillary and Jenny (and all of those lawyers, judges, and politicians) gonna be pissed at Leopold!

with Governor Granholm and Hillary Clinton in attendance,

Something's fishy here.

Our Jenny is in Japan again, trying to get Toyota to build a plant here.

Good. I'm taking two of my kids to Lansing Wednesday for a home school day at the Capital. Jenny Grandstand was invited to attend and now thankfully I won't have to behave myself.
