Thanks for the update and the tidbit about Olson representing Cooper now. I believe Ken Starr is (or was) working with the New York Times, in addition to Floyd Abrams.
At any rate, if the Supreme Court declines to hear the case that will be that.
It will be interesting if they do agree to take it up. I predict they won't.
Thanks.
Here's a link to a Wilson interview at the DailyKos

The respoding posters are hilarious, whipped up by Wilson's circumlocutions and sophistries. Still denying his wife had anything to do with his trip.
One thing: he shows his cards on Rove: Rove acted after the Novak article. Wilson before said he expected criticism, however. When the report comes out he'll deflect to the Left MSM that rove's the real bad guy and so on.
One more: He is so sensitive about not having seen the documents. Hmm...
There are only 3 reasons to add Olson to their legal team.
1. They simply want the best attorney out there.
2. They think that a conservative, government attorney will aid them in the judges' eyes.
3. They want to communicate via backchannels with the Bush Administration.
Won't work.
Jail 'em.
