It was #2. Matthew Cooper's e-mail established that. So much
for that "leak". So much for that "crime".

ROVE

Cliff May
The Corner

Two possibilities and a world of difference between them:

1) Rove knowingly exposed a covert CIA agent as a way to “punish” Joe Wilson.

2) Rove was asked why the Bush administration would send someone like Joe Wilson to Africa on a secret mission for the CIA. Rove answered: “We didn’t. His wife works at the CIA. She got him the assignment.”

If it’s (1) Rove did wrong and probably deserves to be prosecuted.

If it’s (2) Rove was merely telling the truth to a reporter about a curious situation -- unusual perhaps, but hardly criminal or even scandalous.

I know which I think is more likely. I’m not sure that will matter much to the MSM which smells blood in the water.
