Like the lynch mobs of old, the lynchee was often innocent (see Hang em High). And nothing has changed today. IN their effort to lynch Karl Rove, the democrats have thrown logic, reason, and evidence to the 4 winds. They care nothing for the guilt or innocent of anyone in this case, and instead just want their pound of flesh.
According to the lead prosecutor (those pesky facts you know):
Plamegate special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald had told top White House adviser Karl Rove that he's not a target of his investigation into who leaked the identity of CIA analyst Valerie Plame to columnist Robert Novak.
He has also put a gag order on Rove, so while there is no gag order (altho a lot of gagging) on the democrats, they can continue to lie and obfuscate and twist and torture their arch nemesis. The man that beats them fairly every time they face him:
And Fitzgerald has also asked the top Bush aide not to discuss the case in public.
Speaking to National Review Online's Byron York late Tuesday, Rove attorney Robert Luskin said Fitzgerald "has told Rove he is not a 'target' of the investigation" - despite media reports suggesting otherwise.
So let the left dance their hedonistic dance around their pyre of Rove. They care not for facts, guilt or innocence, just that someone hangs for a crime not committed.
