Well, since you seem to be so persnickety at pointing out "alleged" misinformation like Colorado Tanker's I think it's only fair to point out to you that the grand jury is not in Chicago, it's in DC.
And since we're on the subject of misleading, it seems as if you and/or the source forgot to include pertinent information from the actual NYT article. For example:
"Mr. Bush's advisers have repeatedly urged White House employees to cooperate with the inquiry, and it is unclear whether Mr. Fitzgerald has made any decisions about whether to go forward or drop the case. On Thursday, Randall Samborn, a spokesman for Mr. Fitzgerald in Chicago, declined to discuss the case.
"Mr. McClellan said the White House was fully cooperating with the investigation, but he declined to comment on the latest developments.
"Mr. Fitzgerald, who has been in charge of the case for three months, has said he is nearing completion of the inquiry, the lawyers said. Some of them have suggested that he may be facing a problem if he declines to prosecute.
"Prosecutors almost never make public the details of cases in which they investigate, but bring no charges. Federal law bars prosecutors from disclosing information obtained through a grand jury, the legal vehicle Mr. Fitzgerald has used to conduct his inquiry.
"But in this case, being investigated in the heat of a closely fought presidential election, Democrats have been watching carefully for any sign that the prosecutor has favored the administration. Should Mr. Fitzgerald bring the case to a close with no indictments and no public explanation of his decision not to prosecute, he would almost certainly be subject to intense criticism from Democrats.
"Several lawyers said Mr. Fitzgerald could ask a judge to allow him to issue a report. Or, they said, he could seek to employ a rarely used provision of the Justice Department's guidelines for prosecutors allowing grand juries to issue reports. But those sections of the prosecutor's manual appear to relate to public officials in organized crime cases."
http://www.nytimes.com/2004/04/02/politics/02LEAK.html Just in case you missed it: "Some of them have suggested that he may be facing a problem if he declines to prosecute." And "Should Mr. Fitzgerald bring the case to a close with no indictments and no public explanation of his decision not to prosecute, he would almost certainly be subject to intense criticism from Democrats."
To a person with at least normal intelligence it would be apparent that Fitzgerald, despite all the interviews, e-mails, etc., has no evidence to prosecute (which just hasppens to support Novak). But, since he is under pressure from lib Dems like you to find a scapegoat, he is trying to use whatever pressure he can.
By the way, your screen name is very similar to that of FR poster Tuco-Bad. Are you that person?
Odd...You are the second person who has asked me that. No..I am not tucobad. Tcuoohjohn is a very diffrent spelling than tucobad.
Curious...who is or was tucobad?
