Guys you gotta see this. MSM admits it got suckered on the Rove thing. Can't wait to how Schumer and the rest of the Dems wipe the egg of their faces on this one.

Did no one at Langley think that Plame's identity might be compromised if her spouse writes a nationally distributed Op-Ed piece discussing a foreign mission about a volatile political issue that focused on her subject matter expertise?

HawwH00oooo!

Not all the media...Did anyone hear and see Isikoff on Hannity tonight? Hannity went through all the stuff here, and then VERY STRONGLY Isikoff said the prosecutor is keeping on--he (Isikoff) was in court a couple weeks ago and the questions being asked were like a crime had been committed--said that outting Plame is not it. It is all about a memo Colin Powell had on AF 1 giving Plames name and the crime may be leaking a secret document or even using the WH and power of Admin. to retaliate. He was so d@#m adamant, it made me mad. He intimated that the WH set out to punish Wilson.

Of all the things he mentioned, you could say the Clinton WH did it--retaliated, used their power to personally destroy, leaked secret documents(even stole secret documents), etc. But now that the Bush Admin is ACCUSED of something, they have to keep going until SOMETHING is proven.
I would have liked to punch Iskoff and smarmy Colmes (who squared off with Bill Bennett) in the nose--no, better, yet, rubbed their noses in something nasty.

The MSM got away with turning the Vietnam War into defeat, especially the Tet Offensive; they turned a two bit breakin into the downfall of a Republican President, and they want to do it again.

It is a tossup who has their nose more out of joint from losing power--Dems or the MSM. Of course, they are practically interchangeable. And the thing is---they just don't "get it" and never will.

They didn't get fooled, they are COMPLICIT in a DNC smear campaign designed to bloody Rove. They have known from square ONE that this is a non-story.

They'll just claim that it's a new facial; and claim that we're all jealous of them for wearing it.

The only problem is what on earth have the special prosecutor and the grand jury been doing the last couple of years if there was no initial crime. It should have taken all of -- let's be generous -- a day to read the statute, do a little fact checking, and figure out it didn't apply in this case.

I'm truly concerned that we may have a run-away prosecutor and grand jury here. I also think it is beyond despicable that a prosecutor would even take a case like this to a GJ. I think its worse than despicable, in a time of grave danger to this nation, that the prosecutor would not step forward and clear the air. If Rove or anyone else close to the POTUS and VPOTUS are being raked over the coals by the media -- but are not guilty of any offence -- then the prosecutor should come forward and say so.

If they are guilty of some chargeable offense, then the sooner the prosecutor brings an indictment, the better off the country will be, because we are in a genuine world war and can't afford to take our eye off the ball.

The various people ensnared in the web of these murky special counsel things are exposed to the danger of accidentally stepping into a peripheral crime, such as "obstruction of justice," when the matter that started it all isn't even a crime. In almost every one of these special prosector investigations, the central matter never goes to court. Yet the costs to the taxpayer and the people ensnared in the investigation's web is extraordinarily high. That's why the Congress let the special counsel law expire.

These are nothing but high-tech witch hunts. Plain and simple. If Fitzgerald can somehow snare himself a big-wig it makes his career, fame and fortune. That's a powerful incentive to keep pushing at people in the hope that they trip over their own memories of events. Same goes for any of the grand jurors in an era in which any one of them could walk out of there and sign a book deal.

I do not trust Fitzgerald and I do not trust this GJ.
