Where’s Rove?- Juror Says Libby Was The Fall Guy
‘Where’s Rove? Where are these other guys?’
Juror says Libby was guilty but was set up to take the fall in Plame probe

The jurors who convicted I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby believed Vice President Dick Cheney’s former chief of staff was set up as a fall guy, a juror said Tuesday, but they had no alternative to finding him guilty in the leak of the identity of a classified CIA operative.

“I will say there was a tremendous amount of sympathy for Mr. Libby on the jury,” said the juror, Denis Collins, a former newspaper reporter.

“It was said a number of times: ‘What are we doing with this guy here? Where’s Rove? Where are these other guys?’ ” Collins said, referring to Deputy White House Chief of Staff Karl Rove, who was identified during the investigation as one of the senior officials who revealed the identity of the operative, Valerie Plame, to journalists.

1. Rove is probably thinking up another distraction story for us
to turn our heads and not focus on Cheney, sorry Uncle Karl, we are on this story and we will not give it up.
