Uncomfortable Spotlight :
When Vice President Cheney’s former chief of staff goes on trial Tuesday on charges of lying about the disclosure of a CIA officer’s identity, members of Washington’s government and media elite will be answering some embarrassing questions as well. I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby’s case will put on display the secret strategizing of an administration that cherry-picked information to justify war in Iraq and reporters who traded freely in gossip and protected their own interests…
It took 22 paragraphs for her to mention that it was Armitage who outed Plame. Waste of time and money.Â
Must reads for the day:
- Bush: ‘We’re Going Forward’
Amazing what one can accomplish if being popular isn’t a priority - Freedom of Information – the Wiki Way
This sounds like trouble - Democrats Are Unified in Opposition to Troop Increase,
but Split Over What to Do About It
What to do about it would be key and be called ‘leadership’ - Edwards, With King in N.Y.,Strongly Denounces Iraq War
Little Johnny goes to Hillary’s backyard
and ties her pigtails in a knot - Murtha proposes bill to choke funding for surge
Memo to Murtha: Try to catch up. They already have the money - Economists upgrade US outlook after surprisingly strong data
Facts that refute politically engineered news are always a ’surprise’

I’m thinking that much of the embarrasment will be for the special prosecuter, and for the Bush detractors.

Yes, this trial is the last vestige of the pathetic attempt by the Democrites and the MSM to manufacture a scandal. It is a waste of money and the court’s time.
Only a complete idiot would still point to this trial and claim some measure of success.

Conspiracy why not? but who is behind the real Conspiracy? and why do we have open borders at time of war?

Prior to speaking to Libby, Fitzgerald knew it was Armitage.:roll:

Indeed, why? Our so-called leadership, save for some House Republicans, is failing wholesale on that question.
