I tried copying it to Word and changing the case to Sentence Case ... and it made most of it small letters, including most of the names ... ??? I guess that's because it was looking for periods to indicate new sentences and they are sparse. Someone should trade in some caps for punctuation marks.
It would be quite tedious to go through and re-format it by hand. anymouse, I certainly understand why you didn't do that.
At least it's a little more reader-friendly than the all-caps bulletins that the meteorologists distribute. You'd think someone at the NWS would catch on that we don't use teletype any more! Can't they afford word processors?!
Fitzgerald has said that Rove is not the target of the Grand Jury.
Somewhere along the way, the focus of this GJ changed. I just can't figure out what or why.
Oooo. A mystery. Right now I'm searching everything I can find on Miller. She's got something they really really want out of her.
You have mail
You noticed this also...lol.
You've got Rove confused with the entire US Government.
The investigation of the CIA leak is going to die a rapid and ignoble death. The press is milking it for headlines so that it can influence the opinions of the ignorant people who only read headlines. Once they've convinced enough people that Rove was the responsible party, and that he is guilty of treaty - the truth will come out that he wasn't. They print a brief story about that, and then bury it within hours.
They want to leave a lasting impression that the Bush Administration and the Republican Party are morally and ethically corrupt. If the facts don't support that conclusion in the end, the media doesn't care. What the media people believe is that they are the tail that wags the dog. That the truth is determined not by empirical facts, but by how long something stayed a headline.
Here is a link to the time line of the Plame Leak. It is rather long but make interesting reading;

Your caps didn't bother me. I rather enjoyed the easy reading of it.
"Can't they afford word processors?!"
Yeah, but they use them for TANG memos..
we must look like complete baffoons in the eyes of the mossad, kgb, etc.
Could minor Ambassador Joe Wilson himself have been the source in blowing his own Wife's "cover" (even if she had not been a covert CIA agent at the time of the alleged "leaks")?
It is distinctly possible, (though it may be unlikely that Joe Wilson himself directly was NY Times Judith Miller's source), since Joe Wilson himself evidently routinely bragged openly to strangers about her CIA employment, prior to such "cover" being "blown" in the press.
Here's an example of Joe's apparently routine and open bragging about Valerie being a "CIA agent," which became known directly to me over a year ago:
He certainly bragged about it per a famous and highly reliable source's (named below) account of his own face-to-face encounter with Amb. Joe Wilson prior to Valerie Plame's "outing" as a CIA agent/employee.
Based upon a personal conversation (we were in a small group eating; it was NOT an "off the record") I had with eminent historian Victor Davis Hanson (we were at a luncheon table together during a trip to Europe), it appeared entirely possible that Joe Wilson himself was the (or one source, if not the original one) possible source in revealing his own wife's status as a CIA agent or employee.
Victor Davis Hanson (Wilson presumably knew Victor Davis Hanson wrote regularly for NRO (National Review Online), had done OpEds for the Wall street Journal, and other publications, and had his own Website with a widespread following) said he (VDH) & Joe Wilson were both in the same "Green Room" before a televised debate-discussion on Iraq, etc. and Joe first warned the TV make-up person not to get powder on his $14,000 Rolex watch, then he bragged to Victor about several things (possessions and trips to Aspen, etc.), like his expensive car (I think it was a Mercedes), and then bragged about his beautiful ("hot") wife who, Joe Wilson said (braggingly) was a CIA operative.
I asked Victor Davis Hanson Why he didn't write up this account.(?) He replied that Joe Wilson would probably simply deny it, since only he (VDH) & Joe Wilson were in the Green Room together before the broadcast.
However, it is now easy to surmise that Joe Wilson is a crass, materialistic, self-promoting, vain, egotistical, bragaddocio-opportunist, so this account is perfectly consistent with Valerie Plame's TWO photo shoots in Vanity Fair.
Are you Hansen? If not I think he would be more than a little upset with your spamming of this forum.
You need to check your facts on who that memo was from...
When did he say that?
He's said it at least 3 times in the last 18 months.
Yes, there's something going on here, something more than we or the press know. But Fitzgerald isn't talking.
