Fi(sh)tzerman was shaky today in his presser.

I don't thinks he's quite the legal mind we've been told he is by the MSM.

Libby's lawyers could probably make this into an indictment of Fi(sh)tzerman if they are so inclined.

There will be no trial.

I look forward to Libby being acquitted. And Frist. And The Hammer. I really look forward to the day Americans wake up and realize trumped up charges and the politics of personal destruction are all the Democrats have to offer

Heard him on the radio. There's something wrong about that boy. I read the indictment. Could have been written by George Soros.

I've asked myself is Fitz really this stupid?

Maybe he has coldly calculated a backhanded way to get the liberal Press people and Joe Wilson subpoenaed for trial to uncover the truth?

On second thought...Naaaah. He probably wants to get toasted at liberal cocktail parties for life.

The way I read the Libby quote is that Russert asked about Wilson's wife and Libby sort of sloughed it off. Not because he had never heard it, but because he didn't want to confirm it to Russert.

That's what so hard about this charge- is it based on lies to the Grand Jury, or lies that he made to a reporter?

That's part of what makes the quote so confusing. Libby is clearly saying he wasn't doing anything to confirm the statement, but I think it can be read in such a way that he's NOT saying he didn't know that Plame was CIA at the time of the conversation, which is the opposite of what the indictment says. I was once on the stand for 14 hours over two days. You can sound a lot incoherent after a while!

Again attacking the Democrats for a single man's inequity. First of all the Special Investigation was ordered by the White House as well the Special Prosecutor was appointed by it. So, to blame the Democrats for Libby's indictment is ignorant. Secondly, the Demon-c-Rats are all giggling like schoolgirls at a fourth grade dance with giddy excitement about these trumped up charges that will most probably be thrown out of court by any judge with common sense. Lastly, let's (Republicans and Conservatives) focus on the issues that face this country and do all we can to solve present problems rather than throw silly accusations back at a bunch of ignorant politicos.

Maybe, if this goes to trial, he can baffle the jury with passages such as that and they'll acquite him out of sympathy.

The thing is, Russert is saying he never even talked to him about Plame. If it comes down to believing Scooter or believing Russert, Scooter is going to win.

As to Fitzgerald, he was so intent on finding a flea he completely ignored the elephant sitting on his lap. What a disappointment.

I too listened to Fitz on the radio and he sounded demonic and possessed.

He didn't even call Plame to the Grand Jury!!!!!!! He probably didn't even ASK Tenet if she was COVERT in that time period!!! He is a Democrat HACK!!

If and when Mr. Libby is sentenced, I think he should calibrate the entire imbroglio with, "I did not sleep with that woman."

Yes, this is the actual (entire) quote that is the basis for half the indictment.
