Jail requires crime, trial and conviction. Not being leftist doesn’t count as any. Sorry!

Some of the US moonbat leftwing sites are blaming Rove for 7/7. Of course Indymedia UK had a long rticle showing how Blair planned it all.

Rove will survive. Not through a coverup, but by due process. It is Wilson, Plame's husband, who should be attacked. Everyone knows he serially lied.

Oh I forgot. Lefties tolerate outright aand proven lies. You thrive on them.

They've yet to prove that he was the primary source of the Plame leak - the most damning connection so far is that he merely confirmed what Robert Novak alleged, which points the finger of suspicion at someone else.

They also have yet to prove that anything Rove said could be unambiguously portrayed as knowingly outing a CIA agent, and I suspect we're in for months of forensic quibbling by expensive lawyers if such a charge is made.

I'm rather more curious as to why Novak seems to have got off scot-free (so far), given that Judith Miller was jailed even though she never actually published anything.
