Subject: RE: BS: Is Karl Rove a Big Fat Liar???
Now according to the Truthout source the indictment was served on Rove and he was supposedly given 24 hours to put his affairs in order last Saturday, which means if what Truthout reported was correct Rove would have been arrested on Monday.

The mnsbc link that GUEST,heric supplied and quoted in part, in the post of 15 May 06 - 06:02 PM, goes on to state:

"Strange then that a relaxed-looking Rove – not indicted, not out on bail, and wearing a business suit, not orange prison garb -- was in person at the right-wing think tank, American Enterprise Institute Monday morning."

From the WSJ Online (3 hours ago):

"But there is no evidence the Bush adviser was indicted last week. His lawyer says it is plain wrong. Mr. Fitzgerald hasn't commented, and he is expected in coming weeks to make a decision about whether to charge Mr. Rove for perjury or related wrongdoing in the matter."

Very true observations from the same article:

"Politics, and the arguments it stirs, lends itself to the Internet. Bloggers have the latitude to issue one-sided analysis that makes leaps to connect the dots in ways that more-guarded news organizations couldn't."

"...bloggers can focus on one story like the leak probe, scrutinizing each new tidbit -- whether innuendo or fact -- and speculating about how it fits in with information already known."

"Mainstream news organizations say bloggers can say something is going to happen every day for months and then claim to be ahead of the pack when it does -- or forget about it when it doesn't."
