1. He'll be hired as a consultant
for a quarter million a year of taxpayers money. rove, like the bastard at fema is typical george bush garbage. It will take millions and millions of dollars to rid our country of the stench of bush trash. FUCK YOU LURKERS, you are the problem; continuing to support the death of our kids in iraq because you think conservatives are so fucking brilliant.

3. I rather doubt that
He'll be like every person under indictment - they are paralyzed with fear, unable to do anything - anything - besides obsess about what they're facing.

Look at what a mess has befallen Fuckface these past few weeks while Rove's been off the screen.

No, Rove will be lost to everyone except his defense lawyers. Even his family won't be able to reach him.

But, please - no indictments have been handed down yet, so let's not count any chickens, since it's also possible that Fitzgerald will find that no laws were broken.

Just a touch of cold, hard reality here. Keep that in mind.

11. But he won't be as effective as "Bush's Thug"
Which is where his real power is. He's not smart, just really good at being mean. The worst thing that could happen to Jr. is for politicians and media to stop being scared of Rove. We've already seen the effects of his slightly diminished stature.

13. That is what I would like to know. How the WH is going to assure us
Rove does not have access to intelligence & the like - (if he does get indited - which we still don't know).

16. My bet:
Rove- perjury and obstruction of justice, both stick.

Libby - perjury, obstruction of justice, witness tampering, all stick.

Miller - obstruction of justice, no stick.

Bush, Powell, Rice, Hughes, Fleischer, Cheney - unindicted co-conspirators in the unauthorized dissemination of classified information. Powell folds, Rice screams, Hughes goes back to Texas to eat ribs, , Fleischer pleads, Bush and Cheney resume scorched earth policies against all "dissidents" and pardon all of the aforementioned, all the while blaming Joe Wilson and his wife for starting the whole mess by providing an alternative view to the WMD evangelism meme.

17. How about this. The investigation continues because it looks like
Cheney, Bush, et Rummy were fed lies by the "real inner circle of neocons". Bush, Cheney & Rummy - Wolfie - all assumed they were in the inner circle. They weren't - they were just fed crap and stirred into a delusional fit. So they perceived alternative intelligence as "rogue intelligence" and went to war.

Cheney, Rummy & Wolfie were all into to the propaganda and the lying agenda the neocons believe in - they just didn't know they were the "first targets".

14. Rove's not gone yet. At least a 50/50 chance he walks.
He holds most of the cards. We don't.

Even if he goes, he still babysits Shrub.

15. Rove is just another low-life
who has been over-promoted, can't deliver with integrity and is most likely on the short list of foks who now have George Milhouse Bush by the short hairs; as such he's a shoe-in for the GHWBush pardon treatment with a medal of freedom ceremony coming to a (war) theater near you. The only possibility of saving this nation from the Bushworld brand of rule by the richest is Fitzgerald. Does he KNOW his place in the history of this crumbling democracy?
