Relax, Mr. Mephisto. It really would help if you familiarized yourself with this case. There is a legal question here that remains unchanged:
Rove never revealed Plame by name in his correspondence with Cooper. Therefore, it still hasn't been proven that Rove committed a crime.
The article you quoted is nonsense. It sources this familiar
Newsweek article to simply rehash that Cooper and Rove did in fact correspond. Old news. It then goes on to make the completely unsubstaniated leap that Rove outed Plame by revealing her name.
Robert Novak was the one who did that, not Rove.
From the exact same Newsweek article (but curiously omitted from your version):
Quote:
"Nothing in the Cooper e-mail suggests that Rove used Plame’s name or knew she was a covert operative."
