Most important thing I've read all day!
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/31/AR2005103101494_pf.html


Rove remains a focus of the CIA leak probe. He has told friends it is possible he still will be indicted for providing false statements to the grand jury.

"Everyone thinks it is over for Karl and they are wrong," a source close to Rove said. The strategist's legal and political advisers "by no means think the part of the investigation concerning Karl is closed."

2. Maybe. But if this person is close to pigboy, this statement
is a plant. What are they distracting from?

Cheney.

4. Persons close to Cheney could also plant dis-info but
Rover's buds might be trying to divert Cheney's attention to the most likely suspect for ratting out Scooter and putting Dick in spotlight. 'See, Karl's still in trouble; he ain't no stool pidgeon...'

Roaches hate light.

16. Hmm. This whole deal is like "The Godfather" with
old white men. I wonder if pigboy will strap a gun to his leg?

6. Or maybe K-K-Karl's friends are as backstabbing as he is
May he get everything he deserves.

3. Not only that, but we probably won't have to wait long. (~ 2 weeks)
The last paragraph reads:
"Fitzgerald's original grand jury was released from service Friday, after its term expired. Courthouse officials said he is likely to "borrow" a grand jury already convened to investigate additional crimes if needed, and could wrap up his investigation in less than two weeks. It is not uncommon for a prosecutor to quickly present his case to a new grand jury and ask for an indictment, they said."

8. "borrow" another grand jury? wow...
one thing this investigation has shown (for me anyway) is how little I know about how grand juries work!

9. I hope you're right!
Fitz did say on Friday that the bulk of his investigation is complete. So quick indictments do seem plausible.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed!

7. If Fitz intends to indict Rove (& others), he won't tell us until its done
So, we all should just relax and stop moaning that everything didn't get handed to us the first day. This is likely to be a long haul flight.:bounce:

12. Maybe this is just projection, but I can't remember the last time
I saw a JD official that I believed! What a treat that was. :)

13. Didn't mean to single anyone out here.
Just griping about the gripers and nay-sayers and pessimists hereabouts -- not even really about anyone on this thread. Just tired of the "It's all over" chorus.

They know who they are.:hi:

21. when asked about "Official A"
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2005/10/28/AR2005102801340.html

QUESTION: What can you say about what you're still working on then?

FITZGERALD: I can't. I don't mean that fliply, but the grand jury doesn't give an announcement about what they're doing, what they're looking at, unless they charge an indictment.

20. The longer the wait, the more spin and

the more a real and strong effect any additional indictments will bring.

22. KEY news in this article, IMO, is re. the Adam Levine e-mail --
"A source familiar with the discussion between Rove and Fitzgerald said the Tuesday meeting was about a lot more than 'just an e-mail from Levine.' He would not elaborate."
