FAT LADY

I know that some are disappointed that the slug-like Karl Rove didn't get his yesterday.

I am not one of them.

First of all, I was elated to see not one but five indictments of one of the Dark Dick's henchmen and a story line that runs through them. A complete attempt at deception. There are some who think that this really kicks Dicks ass. I agree.

That alone is worth the ticket.

But then, I am made happy about the fact that the story line will be fully fleshed out in the trial. You know, the perjury was hiding a story. To show the perjury they have to show what really happened.

Get out your popcorn.

Back to Rove. It is not over. They all get to have continued heartburn. Bush' brain has a lesion. Damage is being done.

There are some who believe that he might be copping a plea, He has had criminal attorneys from the beginning. Oddly, perhaps in hubris, Scooter did not. He had a trust attorney or something and is now out shopping for the real thing.

Criminal attorneys will do anything to keep their client from being indicted.

There is another point though.

I am satisfied that this guy Fitzgerald is thorough and honest. If there is not a case for Rove to be indicted; so much the better for the system that he not be tried.

It shows that we will not stoop to try the most despicable low life among us for crimes they did not commit.

The fat lady has not sung for the fat man and so we will see. But, no matter how it plays out, Rove has been deeply wounded and the methods he developed to play political hard ball around national policy are being exposed for what they are.

In a way, he is on trial and has been convicted as much as Libby. It is all of a piece.
