The mods don't seem to have a sense of humor.

During the laughable "Indictment should be coming down any day now" days I made this photoshop and it still pops up for the Dummies Funnies on FR.

Rove came pretty damned close to being indicted. From Isikoff's most recent article on Rove's book:

After Rove's fourth grand-jury appearance in October 2005, Fitzgerald phoned Rove's lawyer, Bob Luskin, and told him: "All things being equal, we are inclined to indict your client." Luskin ultimately talked Fitzgerald out of it during a marathon session at the special counsel's Chicago office on Oct. 20. Back in Washington, Rove waited with trepidation. When Luskin finally called him at the White House, he shut the door. "My legs were unable to hold me up." Upon learning that he would be spared, Rove immediately called his wife, Darby. Then "I placed the receiver in its cradle and wept."

I would dearly love for someone to call Luskin, and ask him if this is true.:D

Karl Rove was never going to be indicted, was never a target and this liar is full of it.
