CYA Time

The Washington Post has a new article up on the Plame leak investigation. There doesn't appear to be a tremendous amount of new material in it, as it mostly summarizes what those following the case have been aware of, but it opens with some slightly new details about Rove's apparent testimony.

The main new nugget of info is that Rove appears to have testified that Scooter Libby mentioned Plame to him before her identity was made public. Rove apparently did stick to his "I heard about her first from some reporter... but don't remember exactly who," line.

With every new trickle of information, we get a picture of the involved parties desperately trying to keep their story straight, while Fitzgerald appears to have cast a wide enough net to forceably punch some holes in their forgetfulness. Since the possibilities appear to have come down to indictments or nothing, I'm hopeing we'll see some indictments, if only so that we can see some of the evidence and testimony that have occured over the last year.
