More About An Upcoming Rove Indictment.

Source: Truthout

Now just the other day, we heard that reporters were supposed to be flocking to Patrick Fitzgerald to hear if Rove would be indicted because it was believed that Friday afternoon would be the moment of celebration announcement. The day came and went with not even a peep (if you don't factor Rove into the NSA whistleblower's statement about we haven't even heard the nastiest out of the scandal yet)...but have no fear. Rove may still see his day in a penitentiary uniform.

From Jason Leopold of Truthout:

Within the last week, Karl Rove told President Bush and Chief of Staff Joshua Bolten, as well as a few other high level administration officials, that he will be indicted in the CIA leak case and will immediately resign his White House job when the special counsel publicly announces the charges against him, according to sources.

Details of Rove's discussions with the president and Bolten have spread through the corridors of the White House where low-level staffers and senior officials were trying to determine how the indictment would impact an administration that has been mired in a number of high-profile political scandals for nearly a year, said a half-dozen White House aides and two senior officials who work at the Republican National Committee.

Speaking on condition of anonymity, sources confirmed Rove's indictment is imminent. These individuals requested anonymity saying they were not authorized to speak publicly about Rove's situation. A spokesman in the White House press office said they would not comment on "wildly speculative rumors."

Rove's attorney, Robert Luskin, did not return a call for comment Friday.

I'm curious if he's a part of the NSA whistleblower's big announcement about a scandal "of the likes we've never seen before". Karl's as sleazy as they come, even members of the GOP will admit to that (which is why many don't like him).

Ah, Karl was the reason behind Papa Bush's doomed presidency. What are the odds that Karl has, once again, royally screwed the Bush family? Someone call Vegas to see if they're taking bets.
