True. Reading DU heavily and it is just about all Rove all the time. More than just every other posting. The left is really hanging its hopes on this. I swear to God I read a posting regarding the cancellation of the shiuttle flight and the poster was glad it was cancelled because she was afraid the administration would blow up the shuttle to divert attention from the Rove issue.

OMG!

[cport]

Thank you very much. That makes sense. So the parties of this brief are trying to convince the appeals court to have an en banc hearing of the need for contempt charges based on the fact that Rove didn't break the law, no need for an investigation, so no need to reveal a source, boom! contempt charges dropped..is that kinda the idea?

[Kiss Me Hardy]

I leaked my Aunt Mabel's iced tea recipe...

Ah! A cold drop, no doubt.

[commonasdirt]

"OMG!"

My thoughts exactly Echo Talon. Believe it. S**T like that I could not make up in a million years. I try to keep in mind that they do not represent anything like the average Dem....if they did I would be Very Very afraid.

[Echo Talon]

Now thats actually scary! These people do not need to be in a position of power! SHEESH!

[Rightwing Conspiratr1]

Under the circumstances, there is no reason to believe that Plame any longer held "covert status". And, even if she did, there is no reason to believe that Rove would've known of it. Intelligence wasn't his job. And Tennant had obviously not alerted the White House with regard to any "covert status" for Plame when he told them it was "Wilson's wife, who works in CPD" who had recommended Wilson for the trip.

I'd like to know who told Rove what he told Cooper? And why did Rove tell Cooper? And before the moonbats flame me for not being "on the correct talking points". No, I'm not a sicko commie spy from DU.

The White House may be stonewalling on the Rove scandal.....

I was listening to Limbaugh today and he played audio were more than a few MSM talking heads said the White House was stonewalling this thing. Glad to see that this reporter got the talking points memo [sarcasm]...

"And dont worry because its been a long time coming for this Wilson prick and I cant wait for the sequal 'The White House Strikes Back' Wilson is going down. I just have this gut feeling."

I can't wait either. Wilson has to go down for that bullcrap story he came up with. This Corn guy was shooting his mouth off about this from the very beginning if I recall correctly. He's just another lefty nut case. It's all going to come tumbling down on the Democrats shortly, and then the weasles will cry about Rove and how cunning he was setting this all up. Then yhey will quickly find something else to cry about and sweep this failed Democrat dirty politic scandel under the carpet.

[patriciamary]

I don't understand why this grand jury,what is it's purpose?

[Nathan Zachary]

"Reading DU heavily and it is just about all Rove all the time."

Still? LoL! Last I looked, around election time, they were going on about Rove. He's the source of all their woes it seems. What a bunch of lunatics. What's really hilarious is the Democrat party acts on everything those moonbats at DU dream up.

[Recovering_Democrat]

Corn looks for a scandal next to any "R" that isn't named McLame or Shays. No biggie here. No crime, no foul.

My thoughts exactly Echo Talon. Believe it. S**T like that I could not make up in a million years. I try to keep in mind that they do not represent anything like the average Dem....if they did I would be Very Very afraid.

In that case, BE very very afraid, because the entire DemocRAT Party has been taken over by the rabid, America-hating leftist looney-fringe, just as Islam was taken over by radicals who don't truly represent the (laugh-chuckle-snort) "religion of peace".

The failure of mainline Democrats (if there are any left, with the notable exception of Zell Miller) to denounce and repudiate the seditionist sentiment that has infected the entire Party (I mean, what does it mean when HOWARD DEAN is the DNC Chairman?), the only conclusion that can be reached is that the once honorable Party of Truman, Scoop Jackson and Hubert Humphrey (a strong NRA member I might add) has been subverted and converted into an organization not unlike the CPUSA in it's heyday.

Oh yes, be very afraid my FRiend, the subversive group calling itself the "Democratic Party" is no friend of America, and it is no friend of freedom and liberty. It is dedicated to tearing our Nation down.

Last I looked, around election time, they were going on about Rove.

They have REALLY cranked it up a few notches since those days in November Nathan. They are practically having spontaneous emmissions over their keyboards over this. They now see this little non-event as the thing that will bring down the whole Bush administration. And they can rarely post a comment any longer that is not laced with obscenities. Something you do not see here too often I might add, even when we are talking about Bill or Hillary. I really do hope that they do not have the influence you mentioned them having. I love following them, but it can be difficult because unless you are a member you cannot search DU for articles/posts. And lets face it, just about everyone here is like me and would be banned after their first post as I was.

The secret agent and the retired diplomat in their January 2004, Vanity Fair spread.

Undercover CIA agent Valerie Wilson (nee Plame) and her husband Joseph Wilson, retired (unemployed) diplomat, who was sent by the CIA (But not the Bush admistration.) at the suggestion of his own wife, to Niger to investigate claims that Iraq had tried to buy 'yellowcake' uranium.

[commonasdirt]

"Truman, Scoop Jackson and Hubert Humphrey"

They are spinning in their graves like Dervishes Mad Mammoth. I would bet that all three of them be a Republicans if they suddenly & magically returned now.

[Erasmus]

That's the perfect illustration of the libs standing around, scratching their heads and trying to get this damned conspiracy to start.

I think they're scratching something closer to their brains.

[muawiyah]

Actually, you could pick up Valerie Plame's inquiries to a Russian and a Ukrainian genealogical website long before this story.

She used to surf the web trying to find out if there were anymore Plame family members about.

Not sure if she did that at work or at home.

She did her inquiries in her own name too ~ nothing undercover about it.

[Bullish]

It's only David Corn. The snake lives under a rock so just ignore him.

Really! David Corn would sell his own mother if it would help democrats gain asvantage. If there's one thing Corn has proven in spades, it's that he's first and formost a liberal dem partisan.
