Despite Rove's flashes of ebullience in recent days and the insistence of friends that he is out of legal jeopardy, 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. Otherwise, Rove is likely to wait...

...arrest of House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, who was charged with conspiracy to violate state election laws and money laundering, felony counts that forced him to step aside as majority leader. Largely responsible for the successes of our legal system in the case of Libby is special prosecutor Patrick J.

Compared to the viciously partisan investigation of former President Bill Clinton by Kenneth Starr in 1999, Fitzgerald has maintained an air of professionalism and has not let partisan pressure...
...part-time novelist and full-time infighter has met an unforgiving critic. If special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald is right, Libby spun an intricate--and criminal--web of lies when he spoke to FBI agents and a grand jury last year investigating the disclosure of CIA officer Valerie Plame to reporters in 2003. Although Libby maintained under oath that he first heard about Plame's identity from reporters and passed it on to others as mere gossip, Fitzgerald's indictment offers considerable evidence that it was the other way around--that Libby told two reporters, including TIME's Matthew Cooper, about...
...even as the White House tries to recover, the problems from last week won't go away quickly. Though Rove has not been indicted, Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald is continuing the investigation, and the situation will once again be under the spotlight on Thursday, when Lewis Libby is arraigned. Because of the roles Rove and Libby played in the CIA leak case, and the White House's sluggish performance in the last weeks, some Republicans are saying Bush needs to get new advisers. Kenneth Duberstein, who served as Reagan's chief of staff, said on NBC's Meet the Press...
