Fitzgerald Focuses Again on Rove

WASHINGTON — Prosecutors investigating the leak of a CIA agent's identity returned their attention to powerful White House advisor Karl Rove on Tuesday, questioning a former West Wing colleague about contacts Rove had with reporters in the days leading to the outing of a covert CIA officer.

Special prosecutor Patrick J. Fitzgerald also dispatched FBI agents to comb the CIA officer's residential neighborhood in Washington, asking neighbors again whether they were aware — before her name appeared in a syndicated column — that the agent, Valerie Plame, worked for the CIA.

The questioning, described by lawyers familiar with the case and by the neighbors, occurred as Fitzgerald was thought to be readying indictments in the long-running inquiry into the leak of Plame's identity.

The inquiry, which has reached deep into the White House and could come to an end this week, focused initially on determining who leaked the agent's name to reporters. More recent, Fitzgerald has appeared to turn his attention to possible perjury, obstruction of justice or conspiracy to violate laws prohibiting the distribution of classified secrets.

2. Rove is more effective in diverting attention away from himself.

I don't think the amount of attention Rove is getting means anything inside a courtroom.

Indeed, there may be players who we have no knowledge of that end up being implicated.

3. I heard it come up today

I really think the struggle between the CIA and Cheney's office makes the most sense. I hate Karl Rove but he is usually just a slime ball during elections.

But today sounded quite good for a dual idictment of Libby & Rove

4. I think Libby will resign tomorrow

Will the Undergorund present me an award if I am right?
