Does this mean Rove is safer or more in danger?
Friday night bombshell?
This would seem big, but why release it now?? And not two years ago?

Rove E-Mailed Security Official About Talk
By JOHN SOLOMON, Associated Press
WASHINGTON - After mentioning a
CIA operative to a reporter, Bush confidant Karl Rove alerted the president's No. 2 security adviser about the interview and said he tried to steer the journalist away from allegations the operative's husband was making about faulty
Iraq intelligence.
The July 11, 2003, e-mail between Rove and then-Deputy National Security Adviser
Stephen Hadley is the first showing an intelligence official knew Rove had talked to Matthew Cooper just days before the Time magazine reporter divulged CIA officer Valerie Plame's secret identity.
"I didn't take the bait," Rove wrote in an e-mail obtained by The Associated Press, recounting how Cooper tried to question him about whether
President Bush had been hurt by the new allegations.
