If you had read my earlier posts, you will note that I did not make the claim, as many have that Rove was already de facto guilty and should be jailed. As I have said, up to this date I've seen very little concrete evidence that it was Rove, and it's certainly plausible that Rove at the time was not aware of Plame's status, in which case the he would have committed no crime (although he would still be soley responsible for the leak). In all honesty even if all the allegations turned out to be true, it would still be a fairly minor quibble compared to most of the other lies that Bush & Co. have espoused. I doubt that, in the big scheme of things, his apparent "leak" has significantly compromised US national security, but you can say the same thing about many, many other issues and their investigations.
In any case I am attempting to discuss the details of some of the facts, Rove's merits as a politician have not entered my discussion I had made my candid comments on Rove's character as a politician to explain my (previous) lack of interest in this case. Those thoughts are my opinions only and I won't try to force them on you, but if you are accusing me of hijaacking a_majoor's threat in order to turn it into a character assasination of Karl Rove, I asure you that this is not the case.
