There is no way in my opinion Karl Rove is the one who 'outed' Plame. If Cooper and Miller got that info. first hand from Rove they would have used it to nail the Bush administration in the '04 election. If Rove released these reporters from keeping their discussions confidential then it obviously CAN NOT be Rove who outed Plame. It makes no sense these reporters would go to jail for someone who said it was OK to testify before the grand jury in relation to their discussions.

No, Cooper and Miller could be going to jail tomorrow for failing to disclose their sources to the prosecutor. Their source/sources OBVIOUSLY desire to maintain their confidentiality.

Rove has testified as has Novak. Why is Novak not being held in contempt? Obviously he testified to his source. I say the prosecutor already knows where this information came from. So why hasn't the 'informant' been charged with a crime?

And another thing.....you can't tell me that the EPIC PROPORTIONS the press went to do keep Bush from winning reelection that if Rove did what O'Donnell is accusing him of they would not have used it to derail Bush's chances of winning. After all, Dan Rather and CBS actually LIED on national TV to try to keep Bush from winning. Don't tell me if the press actually had the TRUTH and that truth would have hurt Bush they wouldn't have used it.

Nah. In my mind the person they are protecting is one of their own.

See my post #91. The grand jury does have questions for Miller about a "specified government official".
