While Rita is the storm of the news reels right now,
another storm is brewing. This storm is really on a destructive path and can go
right through the White House.

That storm is named Patrick Fitzgerald. He is the special
prosecutor in the Valerie Plame CIA leak investigation. With his grand jury set
to expire next month, the speculation is now on whom all is going to be washed
away by this storm with an indictment.

People who have been watching this case very closely are
now speculating that John Bolton may be the source that Judith Miller is in jail
to protect. He has made numerous visits to her jail cell, and was one of the few
privy to the classified State Department memo that identified Valerie Plame as
Joe Wilson’s wife and as a CIA operative.

We already know that Scooter Libby, Cheney’s chief of
staff, and Karl Rove, Bush’s right hand man, are facing indictments. Both have
been identified by Time’s reporter Matt Cooper as a source of the leak, but now
eyes are also on an indictment possibly coming out against Bush’s diplomatic
crony.

If it does turn out that John Bolton was in fact a leaker
of classified information that will most likely hurt our standing with the
United Nations even more. Questions will be asked amongst top UN officials about
Bush’s forcing a person in there who is a security risk. Further more it will
severely cripple Bush’s agenda of restructuring the United Nations with John
Bolton at the helm.

Arianna has a very interesting take on this at the
Huffington Post. Please be sure to read her analysis of this situation.
