Talk about spin! (from redstate.org)
A few things that stuck out:

"Don't believe the rumor mill on this until Fitzgerald or one of the indicted actually speaks. Some people are using this as an opportunity to settle scores in the confusion."

Hmmm. Well. Whatever.

You'll notice that throughout this post, the author is adamant that everything is "rumor!" and no one should believe anything at this point. But then, he writes this:

"There is one name every person I have talked to has said will not get indicted. I hate to disappoint the left, but if the rumor mill is to be believed, Karl Rove, yet again, gets off."

The spin and wishful thinking is running high tonight. Whew!

1. that's all they've got!
There is no excuse for these men, who are supposed to uphold the law and they've been caught breaking the law!!

What else can they say except..........we didn't know she was covert. Yeah, a likely story! NOT!

2. I can believe it.
They DIDN'T know she was covert, and didn't think to ask. They just wanted to discredit her husband by accusing him of nepotism, so they did. Then when they realized that OOPS the story was a little bigger than nepotism, they started scrambling and voila...Fitzmas.

Unfortunately for them....I don't think "we didn't know she was undercover" is an excuse.

Kinda like shooting a plainclothesman..."I didn't know he was a cop" ain't gonna fly.
