Rove update (2)
|
*sigh*.
Well, according to Rove's attorney, Robert Luskin, quoted on TalkLeft, the Leopold story is untrue. Now, Luskin will gladly game the media, use sophistry, parse words, etc., and that is is why Rove hired him (even though Luskin is a Democrat). However, he's not going to lie to them. He has been questioned himself by Fitzgerald, as I recall, and I don't think he'd want the extra heat when he could simply have made a simple boilerplate denial.
So, it looks like it won't happen, folks.
Either that, or Luskin is engaged in some serious brinksmanship to protect Rove while Rove is in the process of seriously expanding the narrative to save his own skin... we can dream, I suppose.
