Truthout Reporting That Karl Rove Was Indicted
By Bob Cesca

I haven't been able to find additional confirmation of this, but Jason Leopold at Truthout is reporting that Karl Rove was indicted yesterday on charges of perjury and lying to investigators.

"Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald spent more than half a day Friday at the offices of Patton Boggs, the law firm representing Karl Rove.

During the course of that meeting, Fitzgerald served attorneys for former Deputy White House Chief of Staff Karl Rove with an indictment charging the embattled White House official with perjury and lying to investigators related to his role in the CIA leak case, and instructed one of the attorneys to tell Rove that he has 24 hours to get his affairs in order, high level sources with direct knowledge of the meeting said Saturday morning."

So that pretty much caps off a stellar week for the Bush administration. And the president is going to be speaking about -- what was that? -- immigration? That's rich.

3. Fitzgerald must have sent his "heads up" letter to Rove's attorneys

a couple of days before Mr. Chimps decided to remove Rove from his official White House government position. Bush wouldn't have done that to Rove without a very good reason. If all of this is true, it is going on behind the scenes.

4. That pretty much coincides with his last GJ appearence

That is probably what precipitated the move.
