Looks like Porky blinked
Attorney: Rove Will Cooperate With DOJ Probes

Karl Rove will cooperate with a federal criminal inquiry underway into the firings of nine U.S. attorneys and has already spoken to investigators in a separate, internal DOJ investigation into the prosecution of former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman, his attorney said in an interview.

Rove previously refused to cooperate with an earlier Justice Department inquiry into the firings. The Justice Department's Inspector General and its Office of Professional Responsibility (OPR) said in a report released last September detailing their earlier probe of the firings of the U.S. attorneys that their investigation was severely "hindered" by the refusal by Rove and other senior Bush administration officials to cooperate with the probe.

Rove's attorney, Robert Luskin, said that Rove, however, will cooperate with a federal criminal probe of the firings being led by Nora Dannehy, the Acting U.S. Attorney for Connecticut who was selected by former Attorney General Michael Mukasey to lead the investigation. Dannehy has recently empaneled a federal grand jury to hear evidence in the matter.

3. How is this lying son of a bitch cooperating? He has never cooperated
before. I think they are using the word cooperate like the words War on Terror and Patriot Act were used. It's bull shit.
This country is not back to normal until this prick and the regime he supported are in jail! Rove should wait in jail just like the people in GITMO are waiting to be charged with a crime.

8. I don't think Rove is in the same league as Porky Pig. Porky is better than that.
