looks like Libby will have to scoot out of the White House… Rovey shouldn’t be too far behind…

My guess is that Scooter was in Karl’s trunk this morning, and the Jag is halfway to Mobile by now.

Awaiting Bush to say how “disappointed” he is in Fitz and the grand jury….

This is just another example of the politicization of criminals.

Oh, wait, did I get that talking point backwards? It’s so hard to tell these days.

When was the last time Fitz held a press conference? This has me worried that this is the end, he doesn’t need to hold a press conference to announces Libby’s indictment and say Rove is still under investigation.

And 2pm! Why not now!

I heard that Joe Wilson will also give a press conference?

Jay says:

Well you know Paulette, according to our rightwing friends, Wilson is the real criminal in outing his own wife. Maybe he’s anouncing his guilt? :)

You have to admit, that line of reasoning from wingnutia was (in the words of Stephanie Miller): extra-crispy bucket o’ crazy!

“Wingnutia” – That’s hysterical!

Even Faux news broke away from the fearless leader’s broken record “war on terror” speech. Doesn’t he make his own self nauseous already?

In answer to comment No. 5; I feel sure that Mr. Fitzsimmons understands what he is doing and that the conference being set for 2 p.m. had great significant.
Maybe a deal is still being offered to Mr. Rove,maybe not but it is something to think about. Rest assured Mr. Rove is thinking,and thinking,and thinking, and
thinking——————-

There’s no doubt in my mind that that Wilson’s behind this. I just can’t figure out how he managed to trick all these people into lying!

Damn, that guy’s slicker’n owl shit.

Can Bush pardon (G_d forbid) anyone who is indicted to prevent the flow of more information?

Rotwang says:

#15 Not sure that’s an option at the indictment stage. I’m pretty sure he has to kill them.

#10 – Stephanie Miller, Keith Olbermann, Jon Stewart for ‘08!

Nah. You simply misconstrued yourself. (Oh…that sounds painful.)

I read on Sen. Conyer’s blog that he had collected up to 10.000 letters from citizens to Bush NOT to pardon anyone who might be indicted.
Don’t know if that would make a difference, given that Bush doesn’t give a …. what the American people want, but I think it’s still a good idea and great achievement.
By the way, I’m not all that familiar with all the Senators in the US: I’m not totally sure, but isn’t Mr. Conyers a Republican?
