‘Official A’ Stands Out in Indictment

By PETE YOST, Associated Press Writer

In a sign of the trouble lingering for the Bush administration, the
indictment handed up Friday in the CIA leak probe refers to someone at the
White House known as “Official A.”

The unidentified official could become a courtroom witness against I.
Lewis “Scooter” Libby, who left his job as vice presidential aide shortly
after his indictment on charges of obstruction of justice, making false
statements and perjury.

Although other officials are mentioned but not named in the indictment,
all were identified Friday afternoon during briefings at the Justice
Department.

Except for “Official A.”

The mysterious official is identified in the indictment only as “a senior
official in the White House.”

No mention is made of Karl Rove, the president’s political adviser who
remains under investigation by Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald.

It has been known that columnist Robert Novak spoke to Rove on July 9,
2003, saying he planned to report over the weekend that Valerie Plame, the
wife of Bush administration critic Joseph Wilson, had worked for the CIA.
Rove told the columnist he had heard similar information.

Friday’s indictment says “Official A” is a “senior official in the White
House who advised Libby on July 10 or 11 of 2003″ about a chat with Novak
about his upcoming column in which Plame would be identified as a CIA
employee.

Late Friday, three people close to the investigation, each asking to
remain unidentified because of grand jury secrecy, identified Rove as
Official A.

Going along the lines of what some legal analysts I heard say today, Rove is
definitely still in the sites of Fitzgerald. Perhaps we are just going into the
12 days of  Fitzmas.
