Could be Scooter is in more trouble. Just can't believe Bush would let Rowe get in middle of this type adventure. If he did it was big mistake. And he would let him go. But would keep him on call forward.

I think Scooter is going to be the fall guy here, it's already shaping up that way. The insider fighting and positioning could get really ugly, however. It's really kind of short-sighted to think that the entire bunch of them were not involved and appraised of the situation.

Bush has proven to dismiss those that publicly embarrass him - despite the claims of his being so dedicated to his people. I'm sure there are plenty of those high up in the Republican party and especially the donators that will put plenty of pressure on anyone not named Cheney and Bush to get the heck out of the way. And if it comes down to it, Cheney would be the next to go.

All just conjecture until things shake out. None of this is a surprise to me...I expected it from day one. And I would think that most conservatives thought it possible, too, truth be told.

Until the reports we have seen about the testimony to the Grand Jury become known, we can't know anything for sure. The thing is, the President has painted himself into a corner with anyone that is indicted, and if testimony in the case proves that ANYone in his administration knew ANYthing about this.

He has said that he would get rid of anyone indicted or proven to have known about this situation in his administration. So, either he follows through, or - GASP...he lies. Tough foxhole to be in with this group.

Published reports today have Rove claiming he heard of this from Libby. This, after both said initially that they knew nothing about it. Not saying it's fact, just saying. If they testified to knowing about it in ANY way...you apologists are going to have to come up with a new song and dance.
