Late breaking news -

KARL ROVE INDICTED

This image is an old one, and it's been circulating around the web for at least a couple of years. Finally, it isn't just a joke. Finally, it has some basis in reality. I just look forward now to the jerk going to prison. He's been getting away with his illegal crap for way too long. And, it finally caught up with him. The neocons just got too brazen, like they thought they were invincible. They are not. According to Truthout:

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.

Robert Luskin, Rove's attorney, did not return a call for comment. Sources said Fitzgerald was in Washington, DC, Friday and met with Luskin for about 15 hours to go over the charges against Rove, which include perjury and lying to investigators about how and when Rove discovered that Valerie Plame Wilson was a covert CIA operative and whether he shared that information with reporters, sources with direct knowledge of the meeting said.

I suppose they have to be really thorough, but why did it take so long? And, if this isn't the biggest of the big scandals to hit the White Wash, I mean House, and just in time for Sunday talk shows, then we'd be in for bigger treats. Maybe, just maybe they are working on the Cheney and Bush indictments. But, that would be impeachment, wouldn't it? And, only Congress can initiate impeachment proceedings, right? Which of course means we will have to wait until the Dems take over Congress in 2006.
