Cooper’s email vindicates Rove on three fronts: 1) Rove never gave Plame’s name, 2) he was clearly warning Cooper that his information was inaccurate, not telling him to use it in a story, and 3) he couldn’t have ‘outed’ an undercover agent he didn’t know was covert, because that’s exactly what being covert means.

Cooper is not the only journalist to claim a "White House source" as making a phone call to inform that Valerie Plame, Joseph Wilson's wife, was a CIA operative.

If Rove released Cooper, why did he not also release Miller? Could it be that he was not the ONLY member of the White House who was telephoning journalists?? Who telephoned Novak, Russert and Mitchell??

Is it possible that Miller is protecting herself because she is the original leak???

Cooper called Rove about welfare reform and this just came up.

Miller, I believe, has other sources she and the NYT doesn't want exposed and I'll bet good money it's not a WH "source". Personally, it's probably Wilson himself and this could be another memo-gate type incident.

Rove signed a blanket waiver releaseing EVERYONE. The real question is why Miller is still keeping quiet.
