Back in November, Time Magazine said
several of the most important lawyers who deal with special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald said they saw more clues last week that Fitzgerald is continuing to look into the possibility of charging Rove with lying to investigators or the grand jury or both. If that happens, Rove almost certainly would resign immediately, as did I. Lewis Libby, Vice President Dick Cheney's chief of staff, when Libby was indicted two weeks ago.
To which I said,
Of course, Bush could score a few points if he fired Rove before the next round of charges...that is, if he actually wanted to "promote ethics"...
But he didn't do that (he didn't actually want to promote that), and now it looks like we're gonna get a chance to see how he does without Rove's hand up his ass. Of course, he's been doing so well with it we may not even notice the difference.
