The big smokescreen that Cooper is laying down is the connection between the waivers he got to testify and his "source". I believe that the reason his lawyer sought confirmation from Rove that he had a waiver on the day of his testimony is to distract us from the "other" waiver he had from his true source. He is leaving us habnging out there thinking the Rove waiver and the source waiver are one andf the same when they are not.

When interviewed by Timmy he wouldn't confirm whom else he had waivers from and whether one of them was his source and this was someone other than Rove.

I just heard fat tim belt out a throwback to the net for some spots and I swear I thought I was watching/listening to a soap opera. He must be really desperate for numbers. Is MTP tanking? Between Tim's yelling and the "frantic" music, it's hardly a serious news show anymore.

"Spikey Mikey is on Fox and Friends. He is saying that Plame was a covert agent."

I sent an email to them pointing out that Wilson himself has stated that she was NOT covert at that time and had not been for about 6? years!

Listening to specter, I must say, as a sad cancer survivor, that the country would be better off without him in the senate. Draw your own conclusions.

So, we've arrived at the point where one has to be mentally disabled to be a conservative?

Well, that's always been true. Liberals are the only ones with the correct ideology, and if you're not a Liberal, then you are either a) a dolt (Reid's opinion), or b) evil (Hillary's opinion).

In a way, today's Liberals are the modern-day equivalent of the ancient Gnostics.

Former Congressman Downey (D) on Fox News pressing for a Congressional hearing. Using all the phrases, including "What did the President know and when did he know it?" and such. Also says that the Republicans are protecting the President, and during the Clinton Administration they investigated wether the White House Christmas card list had been abused. Oh, and he accuses Colin Powell of "shopping" that memo about Wilson.

The left doesn't give a rats patoot about this country keeping together, of course. In fact they do everything they can to nurture and foster the division.

Watching Chris Matthews show now - Fineman, Donaldson, Kay & Page on panel - did GWB use bad information to begin the war.......... headed for the Mallox (sp

I have to wonder why people waste their time with DNCball? He has like a .5 audience share. If it were not for all the Conservatives watching Chrissy for things to drive their blood pressure up, Chrissy would have like a .2 market share. If you want to know what is going to be said on DNCball, all you have to do is go read the DNC website. I wish just once someone would grab Chrissy, and his fellow travelers like the supposedly "brilliant" Fineman, by their ears and explain this to them.

In the war on Terrorism, we have a hidden foe, spread
out across a geographically diverse area, with covert sources of supply. Since we cannot go everywhere they hide out, we need to draw them out of hiding into a kill zone. Iraq is that kill zone. That is the true brilliance of the Iraq strategy. We draw the terrorists out of their world wide hiding places onto a battlefield they have to fight on for political reasons (The "Holy" soil of the
Arabian peninsula) where they have to pit their weakest ability (Conventional Military combat power) against our greatest strength (ability to call down unbelievable amounts of firepower) where they will primarily have to fight other forces (the Iraqi Security forces) in a battlefield that is hostile to guerilla warfare. (Iraqi-mostly open terrain as opposed to guerrilla friendly areas like the mountains of Afghanistan or the jungles of SE Asia).

Landrieu has gone one step too far with her facial alterations and has now moved into Pelosi territory. Will Botox give one the bugeyed look or does it require actual surgery?

I think you are absolutely right.

Fat Tim's interview just ended as far as I am concerned. Mehlman destroyed him. Timmy close to tears

"The left doesn't give a rats patoot about this country keeping together, of course. In fact they do everything they can to nurture and foster the division."

Division works for both sides. Read "America's 30 Years War" by an immigrant Hungarian who lived under socialism (Hitler) and communism when Hungary was ceded to Stalin.

He shows how the division and the 'tearing down' of our history and motives is part of the Franco/Germanic philosophy called Socialism or Communism.

I think all of that pales to what Mehlman did to Tim, he set everyone straight.

"Cooper says the first time he knew about Plame was from Rove. (very damaging if true, just as damaging if Fitzgerald believes it is true.)"

I don't think it is damaging. It sounds like Cooper's and Rove testimony matched. Per the latest leaks, Novak called Rove before Cooper called Rove. Novak basically told Rove what he knew and Rove says something like "I heard that too". Rove's lawyer has said Rove did not get his info from any type of classified source. Rove appears to have said he heard the rumors from journalists.

It seems like the (or a) key question is who was Novak's source #1 and where did that source get the info.

It will be interesting to see if this Rove non-story dies out this week. Sounds like today's talk shows may be just the final gasping flame. We'll see.

Can I infer from reading these posts that so far mentioning Judith Millers name and imprisonment has been scrupulously avoided by her colleagues? Most noticable by it's absence if so.

I was thinking late last night about Miller. Remembering she was one of the recipients of the anthrax during the anthrax attacks. Then I was trying to remember if the Islamic charity was tipped off before the raid prior to the anthrax attacks or after.

Not sure why I was trying to connect those dots...

Cool! She'll be a poster child candidate for more exposure.

Sean has sidewalk interviews similar to Jay Leno - people can not even say who the VP is, or recognize his picture. How can we expect that kind of person to know Wilson or Rove?

Sound like DNC talking points given to a little leaguer.
