WASHINGTON - Top White House aide Karl Rove has been told by prosecutors he won’t be charged with any crimes in the investigation into leak of a CIA officer's identity, his lawyer said Tuesday.

Attorney Robert Luskin said that special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald informed him of the decision on Monday, ending months of speculation about the fate of one of President Bush’s closest advisers. Rove testified five times before a grand jury.

Fitzgerald has already secured a criminal indictment against Vice President Dick Cheney’s former chief of staff, I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby.

“On June 12, 2006, Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald formally advised us that he does not anticipate seeking charges against Karl Rove,” Luskin said in a statement.

This is one that the Marxist/Leftists will have to ignore.

It doesn't fit their pre-concieved belief system.

O.J. Simpson Not Guilty...

October 3, 1995
In the seeming eternity before the "not guilty" verdict was uttered, O.J. Simpson's face assumed emotions at both ends of the spectrum. First he furrowed his brow in seeming concern. Then he stiffened his jaw. Then he smiled slightly. Then he looked more concerned. Moments later, he was wearing a smile. And reactions from both players and observers in this "verdict of the century" revealed a similar array of responses.

Didn't see that one coming
--- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope ---

There is little doubt that the world in general is more liberal than it was 50 years ago and beyond. Conservatives are simply roadblocks on the path to an ever more progressive and liberal world. What a sad existence.

It is turning out to be a bad week for liberals. A couple educated idiots over at CNN had rove convicted and in an orange jumpsuit when he was first called to testify.

Looks like a lame attempt at guilt by association. Get it? OJ was acquitted but we all know OJ is guilty. Therefore, according to foundit logic, Rove is guilty. I'm finally figuring him out. It helps if you have a couple tokes and watch a Bugs Bunny cartoon.

You haven't figured out squat.
Even when I EXPLICITLY EXPLAIN things, you still can't figure out what my position is...

In this case, you're wrong as well.

It's a demonstration that just because people aren't indicted or convicted, that doesn't mean they are not guilty.
Simple as that.

That's what I just said only in different words. No wonder you and I have a hard time communicating.

No. It's not what you just said with different words.
There were significant differences between the two. Differences whereby your statement was inherently flawed at face value, and mine was a legitimate point.

I'm not surprised you can't tell the difference between those two things...
