I declare this 'be a little sensative to moonbat' day -- UPDATED

... cuz the wailing and rending of clothing at the dashing of one of their most cherished dreams is over

WASHINGTON - Top White House aide Karl Rove has been told by prosecutors he won't be charged with any crimes in the investigation into the leak of a CIA officer's identity, his lawyer said Tuesday, lifting a heavy burden from one of President Bush's most trusted advisers.
Being smacked upside the head with reality can hurt, especially if some have spent so much time and energy on a Grand Unified Conspiracy Theory that is just ... well ... so much kerfuffle.

UPDATED: Meanwhile

Truthout.org -- the one publication to report, repeatedly, that Rove was definitely going to be indicted -- isn't buying it.

I reached Truthout editor Marc Ash on his cel phone this morning. "I wasn't aware that he had said that," he said of Luskin's announcement, but insisted that Truthout was "absolutely" standing by its earlier reporting.

"We've done a lot of work on this story, we've talked to a lot of people," he said, "and some of the people who provided information for the story are absolutely in a position to know."

So if Truthout's reporting -- by correspondent Jason Leopold -- is correct, is Ruskin lying? "Robert Luskin's allegations are in the best interest of his client, not necessarily the press," Ash said. "I think that the information he is providing is directly contradicted by the information we have."

And after sampling the shock and paranoia on Delusional Underground, I feel this may be a great day to buy stock in pharmaceuticals.

Also, sell your stock in Hallmark. They're going to take a huge loss when they have to dump all those "Merry Fitzmas" cards.

Well, that special prosecutor did something right. He's making progress towards ending this endless (seemingly) plamegate investigation.

Thing is, nobody really understands what it's all about.

Yes, I thouroughly agree Carl.... It's about Liberal pols getting their butts kicked, exposed in yet another "AnyGate" partisan scam .. Running score (taking all the other recent bad news for the Dimbulbs into account) - Bush/Rove 35, Moonbats 0 ....
