Post: White House fears indictment

White House officials told The Washington Post they fear someone in the Bush administration may be indicted regarding the leak of a covert CIA operative's name.
The Post report Thursday did not name its sources, saying "officials acknowledged privately" that an indictment naming a member of the administration could come this year.
Special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald has been investigating the release of the name of CIA operative Valerie Plame, which is a crime for a government official. But the Post said legal experts said there are other possible problems related to the case, including perjury and obstruction of justice.
Time magazine reporter Matthew Cooper appeared Wednesday before a federal grand jury convened to look into the case. Another reporter, Judith Miller of The New York Times, remains jailed in Virginia because she refuses to appear before the grand jury.

Nice picture of Rove behind bars. Trouble is, he's still standing. Trouble is, he needs to be shown lying prone, with his cellmate telling him "make a noise like a pig."
Oops. I meant to say "trouble is" just once, not twice.
His trouble is worth saying twice!
The picture rocks...if only I could wear shirts like that at work, I'd be buying them all the time from AMERICAblog.
Try it and see what happens...
I honestly don't think they fear anything, they are the law, they can do whatever they want and the sheep will follow. Why didn't Clinton ever just say "I wont comment on an ongoing investigation" and if Karl Rove's defense is "I never said her name" then doesnt that mean when Clinton said "I never had sex with that woman" that he didn't really lie since he didn't say her name?
Or did he end up saying her name. What ever!
