Theory : Leopold's source is a member of the Grand Jury

I think the original leak about the Rove Indictment came from someone (or a few someones) in the Grand Jury.

They are the only ones who *could* leak the info, and who *would* leak the info (because they aren't for the defense or prosecution, so don't care about strategy).

This is an unfounded guess. Take it with a grain of salt.

don't buy the bullshit

a physical fact such as a letter.

That juror would be taking a big risk in getting kicked off the jury. Fitzgerald don't play that.

Sorry...nice try on that one.

The only person who appeared to have any credible information about this case was Lawrence O'Donnell who came out and said what he claimed most of "inside the beltway" knew...and that was Rove was Cooper's source. Several days later it came out that Rove had waived his confidentiality for Cooper and this solved that part of the puzzle...and obviously enough for Fitzgerald...despite additional investigating...to find enough evidence to put forth an indictment. There's nothing more, nothing less

I don't know who was Leopold's source, nor do I care. He was wrong, wrong, wrong. No one...not an O'Donnell...backed up his claim. Other than starting flame wars on DU (or should I start calling this place Appologists Underground?) I saw NO other website either investigate Leopold's story or even give it any play. Leopold claimed he'd divulge his sources...never did. Time to bury this entire non-story as the "facts on the ground" now prove this story never had any merit.

I'm glad there were no leaks...what a pleasant change from the trial by leaks that Starr used to try to force Clinton to resign by embarassment.

I doubt is was a grand juror as those people's names are just as guarded by Fitzgerald as any evidence and a leak of that sort would have led to either an immediate dismissal of that juror or other action. None that we know of occured.

Time to face reality. Truthout's lost a lot of credibility here and those who attempt to continue to defend them look as silly as the wingnuts who still say Iraq/911...wanting to believe despite the facts.
