Any Money Bet's on who leaked the WH info?

1. I think the question you're really asking is...
Which low-level WH aide will take the fall for Karl Rove?

3. Yep, I think your correct...
...but couldn't resist dragging Drug-Czar, Religious biggot and gambling addict Bennett into the mix somehow! ;-)

Him and Rove are two prime examples of what's wrong with conservatives!

8. That's great thinking
You may be onto something there. I find it hard to believe that a man as powerful as Rove will go down without a tremendous fight, if he did it, and anybody who believes the actual person who authorized this leak will pay in any way is most likely fooling themselves. We can always hope that the truth will come out, but at this point I am not convinced that we will get the truth from the WH.

4. The WH swing shift janitor is definately going down for this!
Lynn Cheney is looking pretty suspect right now also. Don't trust anyone that has such a sour expression all of the time she looks like she's trying to eat her own face.

Or the very most senior white house official...Rev. Sun Myung Moon

5. Some underling will be thrown out to the wolves
Sure it was Rove, but in the end some 24 year old junior aide will be sacrificed, and the White House will quickly distance themsleves from him.

Fox News will then spin it as the "ethical" and "moral" White House "having no tolerance for corruption".

6. I don't think they will get away with that
How would a 24 year old junior aid have access to know who CIA undercover agents are?

7. They're already putting out the story
Edited on Tue Sep-30-03 05:04 PM by skip fox
that Plame's job at the Bureau was common knowledge around DC. (Reason? If everyone knew, it didn't take at TOP level official--with clearance or special contacts--to have the information. Therefore, a lower level official, as you suggest, could take the fall.)

On edit: To answer the original question: Scooter Libby and Karl Rove.
