Such a letter gives you two choices. Either sit back and wait for an inevitable indictment or try to talk your way out of it. Don't kid yourselves. The WH is fully aware of this and that's the cause for Unca Karl's new job focus. He's literally been pulled out the the official chain of command for no reason other than this impending indictment that's about to hit him in the ass.

His lawyer says Rove is not a "target" but there seems to be a difference between receiving a target letter and actually being a target. I think being a target means there is evidence of crime, receiving a target letter means the party may be indicted for a possible crime. Someone who knows federal law can clear that up for me. So, I hate to get my hopes up and be disappointed later, but on the other hand, there may be hope that he will join Libby as one of the indicted ones.

Forget the fact that Wilson was spreading lies about how he got to go to Niger and that he’s a media whore,

You mean he didn’t go to Niger, or it turns out Niger was in fact supplying Saddam with 200% of their supply of yellowcake? Or the obviously forged documents Bush cited were actually real?

Of course when someone like McCarthy makes a direct attempt to underscore America’s role in the WOT by leaking very damaging and sensitive (oh – and by most recent accounts, A LIE) information to the media for political gain, she is doing a public service.

How can it be sensitive information AND a lie? And what did she gain politically?

You people are begging for a right-wing witch hunt and you’re going to get it. The treason knife cuts both ways

So far it has been the right wing accusing all their political enemies of treason. Are you suggesting this might come back to haunt them?

.. but like so many times in the past, liberals will learn the hard way how conservatives will leave you bleeding.

The whole world has seen that by now. There has been a whole lot of bleeding since the right wing came to power in this country.

Come fall, you will have no idea what hits you. Even if Rove is in jail, he’s more effective than any of you pinkos are.
