    This is like a jelly of the month club gift "It's the gift that keeps on giving the whole year through"

    The gauntlet has been cast down at our feet. We MUST springboard this to ousting these thugs, starting in 2006. The real work now begins...

    Ahhh...the worse possible scenario. Thanks for framing that for us Anne!

    #1 - Ha!! Ok, what flavor is Scooter? Rove?


  5. mcd Says:

    ah, several unnamed people in this indictment. who could they be? where does this go from here?

    speculate on . . .


  6. The Northeast Dilemma Says:

    this all seems like a witch hunt to me...


  7. Jay Says:

    Man, the righties are gonna have a massive coronary. These guys are gonna expose the truth about the war. There is a God!


  8. Zippy Says:

    NED, are you not familiar with the case?


  9. Jay Says:

    Listened to the opening statements of the Fitzgerald press conference and they confirmed that Plame was in fact "classified". Now all you righties that said her status was common knowledge and she wasn't a covert agent.....please explain?


  10. Dumb Fox Says:

    Well seeing as we have established who outed Valerie Plame - it was official A who is either grassing on Libby or about to land in deep sh*t himself - why isn't Fitzgerald complete?

    Of course, it's the small matter of a criminal conspiracy. Give it up wingers, this government is FUBAR.


  11. Seefleur Says:

    Listening to Fitzgeralds' explanation of what the investigation entailed and how it was handled, I think any cries of "witch hunt" are pretty much shown to be WRONG. Talk about crossing 't's and dotting i's!


  12. Dumb Fox Says:

    #8 - The faxes are whirring...

    "Innocent till proven guilty"

    "Libby's done the honorable thing"

    "Prosecutor straying beyond his remit"

    "Dubya wants to get on with governing"

    They're f*cked though. That second grand jury's got to be conspiracy-focused, and it's been empanelled 'cos Fitz has the goods. Bush might do his party a favor by doing a major clear-out before the sh*t really hits the fan, but that would require the kind of leadership Bush has never exhibited.

    well…that was very interesting…i hope ned, randy, scepticalsmith, et al, were watching that press conferance…especially noting the part about “technicalities” - that argument ain’t gonna fly, according to fitzgerald…

    i feel like i think i’m in love…”Truth is the engine of the Judicial System”
    …wow… the world sure needs more guys/people like that…


  14. Mark in IN Says:

    #4 Obviously Libby is Novembers flavor of the month. Maybe Rove will be Decembers flavor.


  15. meg_mac Says:

    the neo-cons have been brainstorming for weeks on how to get the goods on fitzgerald. turns out the guy is a saint!! so cooool. rock on fitzy!!!!!!


  16. Dave Says:

    #13 I wouldn't go so far as in love..., but I wrote down the same quote when that was said. What an articulate, no-nonsense, what-we-need-more-of kind of answer. No speculation, no hearsay. This is what it's all about.


  17. Pete Bogs Says:

    Fitz wouldn't say this exactly, but it seems to be the case...


  18. Keith H. Says:

    Ahhh yesss, this will be a beautiful weekend!!
    Celebration starts now!! (sounds of bubbly corks popping)


  19. Pat Says:

    The article doesn't seem to say this anymore.


  20. Patrick Fitzgerald Says:

    The article doesn’t seem to say this anymore.
