Of course you nor Limbaugh can show that Wilson said it was Rove. He merely said that he was told it was Rove and that is both true and consistent with these statements.

Rove got too overconfident. He thought he could destroy anybody without any backsplash. Now he's going to be bunking next to Pollard and Hanssen.

<font color=navy>Inside, Rove was talking to an aide about some political stratagem in some state that had gone awry and a political operative who had displeased him. I paid it no mind and reviewed a jotted list of questions I hoped to ask. But after a moment, it was like ignoring a tornado flinging parked cars.<font color=brown> "We will fuck him. Do you hear me? We will fuck him. We will ruin him. Like no one has ever fucked him!"<font color=navy> As a reporter, you get around—curse words, anger, passionate intensity are not notable events—but the ferocity, the bellicosity, the violent imputations were, well, shocking. This went on without a break for a minute or two. Then the aide slipped out looking a bit ashen, and Rove, his face ruddy from the exertions of the past few moments, looked at me and smiled a gentle, Clarence-the-Angel smile. "Come on in."<font color=black>

Yes he certainly learned from the great parser of words.

This is a completely meaningless statement, (other than proving that Wilson is anxious to bring Rove down).

Wilson insisted, however, "I have great confidence that, at a minimum, [Rove] condoned it and certainly did nothing to shut it down."
