News legal offices differ with the newsrooms

Rove, Rove, Rove, what to do? While “newsmen” hound White House press secretary Scott McClellan in an effort to get Karl Rove, their legal offices have been working over time to convince the special prosecutor in charge of the case that no crime was committed. “In this case, there exists ample evidence on the public record to cast serious doubt as to whether a crime has even been committed under the Intelligence Identities Act (the ‘Act’) in the investigation underlying the attempts to secure testimony from [Judith] Miller and [Mat] Cooper. If no crime under the act has been committed, then any need to compel Miller and Cooper to reveal their confidential sources should evaporate” states the legal brief filed by 36 “major news organizations” on behalf of Miller and Cooper.

So if the major MSM legal departments are of the opinion that no crime was committed, why are the “newsmen” hounding McClellan as if Rove sold our nuclear codes to the ChiComs? It is comical to me that the best way to get these blown dried people to lose their cool thereby showing their true color is to ignore them. When Bush is out of the White House cutting brush on his “ranch” full time, there will be a score of books written about how Bush, considered by the Libs, Dems and their operatives in the MSM and Hollywood to be an idiot, beat his opponents like a drum at every turn.

With regard to Rove, there is absolutely no “there” there. Here we go - the facts.

Joe Wilson said that he was sent to Niger by the Vice president. He lied. His wife, what’s her name, recommended her dopey husband for the mission.

In an OpEd piece, Joe Wilson said that Iraq had no contact with African nations with regard to WMD. The SSCI found that not only had Wilson lied in his OpEd piece about Iraqi involvement in Africa, his own report contradicted his own OpEd. How odd.

Joe Wilson claims Rove blew his wife’s CIA cover. 36 “major news organizations” dispute that claim. Valerie Plame’s name appears Joe Wilson’s own biography. She has driven in and out of CIA HQ in Langley for years. Her last overseas assignment was nine years ago – well outside the five year scope outlined in the “Act.” How under cover can one be when they are driving in and out of the front gate at Langley? Shouldn't she be using a secret tunnel or something?

Karl Rove told the truth when he told Mat Cooper, “on super secret double background,” that Wilson was a liar. Seems to me if he were out to “get” Wilson for being anti-administration (as opposed to being just a lying sack of excrement) as Wilson insists, Rove would have demanded that Cooper expose Wilson and his wife.

Sometimes it’s best to just sit back and smile.
