Is Rove going down?

[starchild]

If Rove gets tagged, it will be interesting to see who he takes with him, because I gau-ron-tee that guy knows every secret of every person in the administration that is worth knowing.

Unless of course, someone even more scary comes out of the woodwork.

James Baker comes to mind.

I'm running for something then...I don't know what...but just wait...no scandal...vote for gaijin178 in 2006 for congress!

haha you cant be in congress. you have too much common sense and havent sold your soul to a special interest group

 

[arnegrim]

he said Wilson's wife is fair game, that is not speaking her name... so you are right....

No... I don't believe he said she was fair game...

"In the conversation, Karl is warning Cooper not to get too far out in front of the story," Luskin said. "There were false allegations out there that Vice President Cheney sent Wilson to Niger and that Wilson had reported back to Cheney about his trip to Niger. Neither was true."
"A fair-minded reading of Cooper's e-mail is that Rove was trying to discourage Time magazine from circulating false allegations about Cheney, not trying to encourage them by saying anything about Wilson or his wife."

Here's a paragrapgh from the July 11, 2005 issue of MSNBC Newsweek National News titled "The Rove Factor." Sorry I couldn't post the link.

"In early October 2003, NEWSWEEK reported that immediately after Novak's column appeared in July, Rove called MSNBC "Hardball" host Chris Matthews and told him that Wilson's wife was "fair game." But White House spokesman Scott McClellan told reporters at the time that any suggestion that Rove had played a role in outing Plame was "totally ridiculous." On Oct. 10, McClellan was asked directly if Rove and two other White House aides had ever discussed Valerie Plame with any reporters. McClellan said he had spoken with all three, and "those individuals assured me they were not involved in this.""

Somebody is definitely lying.

 

[Cliche Guevara]

I wonder how many wives Wilson has?



As I understand it, he definitely 'outed' the agent, even if he didn't give her exact name - I mean, saying "Wilson's wife, who apparently works at the agency on [weapons of mass destruction] issues who authorized the trip" doesn't really require an exact name! It's not really much of a defense, is it?!

 

[starchild]

Somebody is definitely lying.

*faints*

And since no one bothered to contradict the statement that he'd called her fair game til now....

Can we guess who the liar is?

 

[Grizzly]

and dems cant? please. they're all crooks basically.

Unfortunately, I believe that statement is true.

All you have to do is put the effort into researching it and reading it!

indeed. yowza yowza.

I don't think there are actually any good looking ones.

I am starting to have a sneaking suspicion that the "outer" could very well have been a reporter. Maybe we'll know who the "outer" was one day, or maybe not.

I didn't know Karl Rove was a reporter!

 

[KenH]

At this point I don't think that Karl Rove "outed" her.

Explain a little more please, I'm starting to get a little sleepy at this point. Wouldn't the "outer" be whoever told the reporter? Most reporters, if any, don't have the kind of security clearance to know info like that, right?

 

[KenH]

Sorry. I am referring specifically to the person who told Novak.

Karl Rove has made a career by unfairly defeating rivals to his clients. Unmasking Plame was just another of his ploys to serve his master using any dirty trick without conscience of any kind. It is about time that his assignations catch up to him.

Be gone Karl.
