Oh, I don't think you'd have to go that far. But the period between Wilson's Op/Ed and Novak's column? Definitely!

Interesting....I thought grand jury information was secretive. I'm glad you know what was testified to and how many times it has been changed.

What's your take on these leaks? They've got to be coming from the lawyers, don't they?

Attorneys taking leaks? Don't they just use the bathroom like everyone else?

Get it? Plame Game? Plame Game. Plame instead of Blame. Isn't that clever? Ha-ha. Heh... heh....

Never mind.

I still don't get any of this shenanigans. I guess I'll just have to wait until the Fitzgerald announcement...

Whatever the outcome, I love this picture:

I think the leaks come from people with political agendas, whatever they may be. They could be coming from those with a right-leaning stance, making things sound worse than they are so that when indictments come they are no big deal. They could be coming from those with a left-leaning stance, making things seems worse than they are to try to inflict political damage prior to something coming out that isn't really that bad. I can't really think of a reason to understate what the real charges may be, but I'm sure there are politcially savvy reasons for someone to do so.

I have no idea about the leaks, really. All I know is that to pay attention to any of them serves no purpose. Whatever is being leaked, I don't believe it can really be trusted. I'll just wait until the charges, if any, are announced.

Committed perjury on March 5 and 24, 2004.
Engaged in obstruction of justice by impeding investigation.

Libby just resigned.

And Libby should resign. Glad he did. He should be prosecuted for the crimes, and if found guilty, serve his time or pay his fine or both - whatever the law requires.

Personal advisor to the second most powerful man in the country and maybe the world. Hmm. I'm thinking this indictment should have bigger ramifications. Like Cheney himself.
