All probes lead to Rove

Josh Marshall has a link to a story in tomorrow's NYT that lends some credibility to my theory that Abramoff is being offered up as a sacrificial lamb by Rove.

Looking at the facts of this odd story about how Jack the Golf Tripper dodged the bullet in 2002, one might infer he enjoyed a protected status then. The investigation of the lobbyist's activities in Guam was immediately quashed.
...days after federal prosecutor Frederick A. Black notified the Justice Department's Public Integrity section of his inquiry into Abramoff, he was demoted. And his new bosses barred him from pursuing any other public corruption cases.
The trail leads back to John Ashcroft and Josh connects the dots all the way to Karl Rove.

Maybe it's all just a curious coincidence but Karl has long history of taking down political opponents. How much easier could it be to take down a former ally?
