There is no such thing as a "journalistic privilege to refuse to disclose source."

You are absolutely correct and I want to spit in their haughty faces when they say this. However, they CAN, and hey I'd even encourage, choose to go to jail rather than testify.

Of course then the public gets all boo-hoo, poor lying journalist in jail. Then that's part of the plan.

Anyway, the Plame case is a waste of money although, tween you and I, I think the administration knows that whoever dropped the dime about Valerie Plame is a DEM operative.

Which is why I think the administration kept up the hunt. It was like, okay, Dems, you get what you ask for. The Dems never wanted this followed through this far. It was a grand scheme they concocted we all know this.

Methinks their yarn is about to come unraveled and I'm not convinced those journalists want to go to jail for Valerie's honest husband. Who is, by now, a proven liar who wasted America's time on a fraud meant to damage the President's re-election campaign.

I could be wrong here. But just a hunch.

Pretty good hunch, if you ask me.

"Anyway, the Plame case is a waste of money although, tween you and I, I think the administration knows that whoever dropped the dime about Valerie Plame is a DEM operative."

I'm with you. They did not expect this to go this far, figuring that W was beatable (historically he was) and they would again assume control of the DOJ. A terrible case of misunderestimation. Hehehehe...

I just love the fact that the media jihad over the Wilson/Plame affair is biting the media in the backside. And they thought they were going to nail Dick Cheney. He plays way above their paygrade.
