No doubt about it. The noose is tightening around Karl Rove's neck and it couldn't happen to a better asshole. The "win at all costs" political operative who kept George W. Bush in office against all odds may have stepped into too much shit with his role in the Valerie Plame debacle.
This is a case of pure political revenge. Rove played a significant role in outing a covert CIA operative because he wanted to get back at the operative's husband, former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, because Wilson had the audacity to question Bush's actions.
Rove deserves whatever happens to him. Sadly, it won't be enough.
Rove is a traitor. This whole story, and especially the counter-attacks, are sickening.
The bottom line is this: If he and Libby are as innocent as they maintain, how come they didn't come forward immediately to set the record straight?
I think we all know why...
