Harriet goes, Scooter goes, Karl stays

So much for the Harriet Miers nomination. And now that Scooter Libby has been indicted, can Karl Rove be far behind? This from MSNBC:
“Mr. Libby’s story that he was at the tail end of a chain of phone calls, passing on from one reporter what he heard from another, was not true. It was false,” the prosecutor said. “He was at the beginning of the chain of the phone calls, the first official to disclose this information outside the government to a reporter. And he lied about it afterward, under oath, repeatedly.”

Bush referred to Libby as someone who worked tirelessly for Americans. “He served the vice president and me through extraordinary times in our nation’s history,” Bush said.
Extraordinary times? I'll buy that.
