FINEMAN: "Karl Rove is the guy who guides political strategy in the White House.  And also, there will be further questions raised about exactly what the White House was up to when they were going after Joseph Wilson."

MATTHEWS: "So it rips the scab, if you will, off that whole question about WMD and why they were so nervous about a nobody named Joe Wilson questioning them, right?"

FINEMAN: "Absolutely."

Yes.  Exactly.  This is where Cheney's role comes in -- which is what Karl Rove will probably testify.  Years from now, we will look back at Patrick Fitzgerald and think of him as the man that made the White House turn against itself.
