Reply #11: Everybody knew it was Rove....

It was just a matter of time before there was an investigation to get people to start saying it. The story told by Wilson makes it clear that Rove had always been a major factor in the spread of Plame's name as a CIA operative. There was no doubt that, if Rvoe was not the source, he at least played a big role in revealing the fact, whether it be being the actual leak or just repeatedly stating the fact she was an operative.

"I just got off the phone with Karl Rove, he says, and I quote, 'Wilson's wife is fair game.'I will confirm that when asked."

He really put himself out there confident the reporters would protect him or take the heat for him. I just wanna wait and see how it all turns out. I certainly have my fingers crossed in hopes Rove is the driect source...
