It's going to be pretty lame if all they get people on are perjury and obstruction of justice based on their grand jury testimony. That would mean that the Valerie Plame leak wasn't a crime at all, and would add a rather Ken Starrish flavor to the whole affair.

Patrick Fitzgerald's reputation is much, much better than that. He's been single-handedly cleaning up a lot of corruption here in Illinois (hurting the Dems and Repubs-the latter got annoyed at Peter Fitzgerald, no relation, for pushing for Patrick Fitzgerald to be appointed, and basically made Peter Fitzgerald retire), and he does not seem to make BS charges.

He also doesn't leak much at all. (I'd hate to play poker against him.) I wouldn't be surprised if the indictments he does issue haven't been anticipated at all.

One thing I find interesting: why is Fitzgerald ,a href="http://www.upi.com/InternationalIntelligence/view.php?StoryID=20051023-104217-9679r">looking at the Italian documents which turned out to be fakes?

It might be that indictments get issued over things not connected to the naming of Valerie Plame as a CIA agent.

I suspect we are not going to learn much new about Dubya's motives, but it sure would be gratifying to see Rove fry.
