Rove in hotseat again

Legal Experts: Rove Testimony a Risky Move

PETE YOST, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON – Presidential aide Karl Rove’s upcoming fourth appearance before a federal grand jury investigating the leak of a CIA officer’s identity is a risky legal move because it opens him up to making statements that are inconsistent with what he previously has said, legal experts say.

Rove offered in July to return to the grand jury and Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald accepted last Friday, lawyers familiar with the investigation said Thursday, speaking only on condition of anonymity.</i>

I think I hear a rat getting ready to squeal…and when you combine it with this tidbit from Lawrence O’Donnell:

Prediction: at least three high level Bush Administration personnel indicted and possibly one or more very high level unindicted co-conspirators.

Higher than Rove? That is really only two people. Get out the popcorn, this could be history in the making.
