Leftists and Bush haters have spent the better part of two years praying to St. John (brotherhood of man) Lennon, or is it Lenin; clutching their medallions of St. Joseph and St. Valerie, Wilson and Plame, believing that every day might finally be the day when the benign pacifist socialist coincidence of the universe rewards their faithfulness and takes down the demon Rove once and for all. Every mention of Patrick Fitzgerald's grand jury sends them into a religious fervor worthy of a backwoods Holiness meeting complete with rattlesnakes.
Rumormongers and date setters excited the faithful with predictions of how many and when the indictments might come. Each new prediction causes the true believers to forget the inaccuracies of the predictions before it. For you see, we aren't talking about people thinking rationally. We are talking about faith.
The leftists and Bush haters have given up rationality, and instead, have become cultists of hate so strong that they make the Aryan Brotherhood pale by comparison. And as all good cultists, they have a day of Rapture. For the leftists and Bush haters, that day is the day that Karl Rove is indicted in the Valerie Plame case. The reason is because on that day, it will be a sign, a prophetic fulfillment if you will, that the Bush presidency and the neocons have finally crumbled and a millenia of peace, brotherhood, harmony and national healthcare will arise from those ashes.
Rove's appearance, yesterday, at the grand jury for a fourth time, was hailed as the parting of the eastern sky. The cultists knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that this meant that Fitzgerald was ready to hand down indictments and Rove's name was going to be first on the list. Maybe not. When Rove left the grand jury, his attorney stated,
"The special counsel has not advised Mr. Rove that he is a target of the investigation and affirmed that he has made no decision concerning charges," Rove's attorney Robert Luskin said in a statement.
"The special counsel has indicated that he does not anticipate the need for Mr. Rove's further cooperation," the statement said.
Not exactly the wails and gnashing of teeth one would expect from a demon consigned to the lowest pits of Hell.
It's still to early to tell, but what if the prophecies are wrong? What if no indictments are handed down? Just the thought is enough to make a true believing leftist and Bush hater mix up a batch of Jonestown Kool Aid.
Nah, America couldn't be that lucky.

The way things are going for Rove bother me more than the Bush Bashers..These same people that bash GW, hate everything about Karl, in particular, his ability to win elections and do them in every time there is one. I think that this committee is uncalled for and that while Rove spoke to reporters about some of this, how long had Mrs. Plame been back in this country and no longer covert? And how many people knew Valerie's position with the CIA, beause she and her husband were not stay at home type people, and he wrote in his book about her, so in my humble opinion..Her husband outted her, and Rove was an innocent bystander. Let's call him to the committee that Fitzgerald is hanging on to too long. The new grand jury starts on 10-28-05..Think he will make a decision by then? I doubt it.
Steve - if no indictments are handed down, the left will gnash their teeth and rail it as yet another "VAST, RIGHT-WING CONSPIRACY."
As for the Jonestown Kool-Aid, here's hoping they make a big, BIG batch of it to drown their sorrows.
