Even if true that Rove leaked the name, it has been noted on more than one occasion here that this was quite possibly not even a crime…the so-called "outing" of Plame was probably not criminal after all.

At this point, Rove is looking innocent

… Rove simply confirmed a fact that was already in circulation. He no more "outed" Plame than Wilson did when he peddled his "outing" allegation to various left-wing journalists after Novak's column ran.

If your source is correct, that would tend to mean he is not going to be indicted.




Lawyer: Karl Rove Won't Be Charged in CIA Leak Case

    President Bush’s political adviser Karl Rove won’t be charged with any wrongdoing in connection to the investigation of the leak of a covert CIA officer’s identity, Rove's lawyer said Tuesday.

    Rove learned of Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald's decision on Monday after he stepped off a plane in New Hampshire where he was delivering a speech to state Republican officials.

    “We believe that the special counsel's decision should put an end to the baseless speculation about Mr. Rove's conduct,” Rove attorney Robert Luskin said in a statement. "In deference to the pending case, we will not make any further public statements about the subject matter of the investigation."

    Fitzgerald’s decision ends speculation into the investigation that started in 2004 that Bush could lose his longtime political aide if criminal charges came down against him.




so, your opinion as a lawyer, is that if someone isn't charged then they must be innocent?
