I just wonder if a spike in sales of these magazines will make MSM realize how many people care about this scandal.

4. Matt Cooper
Here in my opinion is why they, the RW, are now attacking Matt Cooper.
His lawyer, Richard Sauber, in a brilliant move caught Rove and his lawyer ,Robert Luskin, in a no win situation.
Luskin made this statement "Mr. Rove hasn't asked any reporter to treat him as a confidential source in the matter," Mr. Luskin said, . "So if Matt Cooper is going to jail to protect a source, it's not Karl he's protecting." GOTCHA... because up to that point Cooper did not have a specific waiver from Rove.
I just wonder did Luskin take it upon himself to make that statement or did Rove issue it through Luskin.
Sauber said "So I asked Mr. Luskin if he would agree to the following language, which he did, that: "Consistent with his written waiver of confidentiality he previously executed, Mr. Rove affirms his waiver of any claim of confidentiality he may have concerning any conversation he may have had with Matthew Cooper of Time magazine during the month of July 2003."

3. Ditto.
I was planning to let Newsweek lapse because Jesus is on the cover every other week, but maybe they can redeem themselves.

5. Only if
we run out of toilet paper and all of the toilet paper factories shut down and all of the catalog companies shut down and all of the leaves on the planet disappear.

Yes, then I could envision buying several copies of Time and/or Newsweek with which to stock our bathrooms.

6. Good idea. I bet Newsweek is pissed about "retracted" Koran Abuse story
I think I'll buy several copies. One for home, and others to leave at the doctor's office.

7. Only if the covers are:
"Karl Rove and Scooter Libby: the president's men who said too much."
