Typical Karl Rove Not Being Indicted Story (New York Times)

As everyone knows by now, Karl Rove's lawyer has announced that the Special Prosecutor has informed them that he does "not anticipate" that Rove will be indicted. Truthout's Jason Leopold stands by his story that Rove was secretly indicted. (Yeah, right.) Some are seeing wiggle room in the phrasing of the statement. Others are speculating that Rove may have made a deal and that Cheney may be the next target of the investigation. Me, I am through reading the tea leaves. Rove apparently has been sucessful in "walking back" incorrect statements he made to the FBI and the grand jury. In the process, it does appear to me, that he has admitted that he did leak Valerie Plame's identity, and I am disappointed that Fitzgerald did not charge him with that underlying offense. Fitzgerald has shown himself to be a man of integrity, however, (unlike, say, Karl Rove) and I accept that he is exercising his best professional judgement.
