WH svengali remains in legal jeopardy, a possibly treasonous asshat.

A conversation between Karl Rove's lawyer and a journalist for Time magazine led Rove to change his testimony last year to the grand jury in the CIA leak case, people knowledgeable about the sequence of events said Thursday.

[A]fter his conversation with Ms. Novak, Mr. Luskin asked Rove to have the White House search for any record of a discussion between Rove and Matt Cooper around the time that Ms. Wilson's identity became public in July 2003.

The search turned up an e-mail message from Rove to deputy national security adviser Stephen Hadley that recounted a conversation between Rove and Mr. Cooper. On Oct. 14, 2004, Rove went before the grand jury again to alter his account.

Mr. Fitzgerald appears to be evaluating whether Rove came forward with the e-mail and his new testimony only after it became apparent that Mr. Cooper might be compelled to testify about it. Fitzgerald continues to weigh whether to indict Rove on charges related to lying or misleading investigators. He appears to be focused most intently on two months in the late summer and fall of 2004 and the events leading up to Rove's altering his testimony.


Treason's Greetings!
