Oddly, I agree with you. Rove didn't violate the law, and he'll never be prosecuted.
But the WSJ is nuts if they think this thing isn't going to be serious problem for Bush, or shouldn't be a serious problem for him. What Rove did was despicable, underhanded and sleazy. He could have attacked Wilson on the merits. But he didn't. He took a Nixon cheap shot.
Thats the trouble with this admininistration. They never fight on the merits. They play procedure (energy tastk force records, classification of all WH docs as top secret, classifying large swath of 9/11 report). People don't like/respect people who won't stand and fight. It smacks of weakness and sneakiness.
