Top aides reportedly set sights on Wilson — Rove and Cheney chief of staff were intent on discrediting CIA agent's husband, prosecutors have been told

This is the BIG STORY: Rove and Libbey were systematically out to destroy Joe Wilson and as collateral damage destroyed the career of his covert CIA agent wife; this codes the issue as TREASON and a NATIONAL SECURITY issue so the Repugs have to attack the attackers because they cannot defend their smears and dirty tricks on issues of national interest or security

Iraqis Stunned by the Violence of a Bombing - New York Times

everyday in Iraq is as bad as the London terrorist bombing day and some days are worse; it is striking how much global media coverage atrocities in Europe or the US get while the daily carnage in Iraq is just a blip; BUT in much of the world the horrors of Iraq are featured on the news which is what helps recruit so many suicide bombers; Bush has unleashed a deadly cycle of violence and peace will not return to the world until he is retired in Crawford Texas or sent to the International Criminal Court

The Rove TraitorGate story has legs dominating Sunday talk shows and weekly news magazines. The Republican are reduced to saying Rove is a "good man" who is being "smeared" and demand an apology from the Democratics. This is rich irony over the sleaziest operative in US politics who is a very, very Bad Man. Cheney's Chief of Staff Lewis Scooter Libbey is also fingered

Rove-gate: Who Leaked to the Leakers?- by Justin Raimondo

here's a very interesting analysis that suggests Rove is the patsy of neocons who were out to discredit anyone who undermined their war plans and used Rove to do the leak to get at CIA factions who were also blocking their war plans, as well as to discredit Joe Wilson; if there is anyone more vile than Rove in the Bush White House it is Cheney and his minions so this analysis is plausible
