See Ty... easy as pie. Rinse, Repeat 10,000x until Karl is on K Street.

Well that's all fiery and cute but I don't think you actually believe Rove made his point (however weak or strong you think it was is irrelevant) to the reporter in order for the reporter to turn around and place Plame's safety in jeopardy by telling the entire fucking world that Plame is an undercover operative. Any idiot would know that plan would backfire on him and surely Rove knew Time Magazine wasn't exactly going to help him out of any resulting mess. In my view, Rove should be canned for mentioning Plame because in the end, the word got out to the general public about Plame. It's the right thing to do. He got had. Fucking Time Magazine. What was he thinking?
But any publisher that allowed his/her paper to out to the general public information about Plame should be stepping down as well.
