Its about criminalizing policy differences. Those should be settled by voters not decided in the courts through questionable prosecutions.

Look up the editorial on the WSJ's sister site OpinionJournal.com. You can read the Journal's editorial content there every day for free.

Good read.
Fitz should act on the limited mandate of his appointment(if any action is required),and having done so,shut down.
In the end,whatever he does,it will define the quality of his integrity.

Thank you both for the helpful information and links. Good article; one of the few I've read recently that actually makes sense.

If Mr. Fitzgerald has evidence of a malicious attempt to expose a CIA undercover agent ..... IF this is what the "investigation" is about, then Mr. Fitzgerald owes the American people their money back. It was ascertained a long time ago that Plame WAS NOT A CIA UNERCOVER AGENT.

But, he requested and has apparently gotten authority to expand the probe to cover other aspects of the case, like obstruction blah blah blah.
To: Justanobody
Exactly. Plame was a desk agent at the CIA. It has been established she was never a covert operative and her ties to Langley have been an open secret in Washington. There was no crime committed here even by a very strict reading of the law. If Rove and Libby are indicted, it certainly won't be for the alleged offense that had the MSM in such an uproar for the past year.

I used to laugh at the French system where indicted politicians stay in power until they are convicted of a crime.
It is a shame, but the Democrats are forcing us towards the French model of governance, because Democrat justice officials seek to attack our elected Republican representatives (Delay and possibly Rove, etc)by forcing them to resign with bogus indictments.

IF this is what the "investigation" is about, then Mr. Fitzgerald owes the American people their money back. It was ascertained a long time ago that Plame WAS NOT A CIA UNDERCOVER AGENT. For sure!

The WSJ gets it nearly exactly right.
To: indianrightwinger
I think that enough money has been wasted by this group for the benefit of the Democrats in this nation.
As a taxpayer I am disgusted with the whole deal. Only Democrats can get away with rampant corruption.

Looks like tying the obvious partisan attack on Delay to Fitz' actions could be used to discredit both as a 'Rat/MSM planned attack.

To: indianrightwinger
This paragraph from the editorial is PERFECT:
Mr. Wilson's original claims about what he found on a CIA trip to Africa, what he told the CIA about it, and even why he was sent on the mission have since been discredited. What a bizarre irony it would be if what began as a politically motivated lie by Mr. Wilson nonetheless leads to indictments of Bush Administration officials for telling reporters the truth.

"As for Mr. Bush, we hope he realizes that anyone who is indicted was defending his policy and his Presidency. He should consider carefully the nature of the charges and the evidence before he dismisses his most loyal advisers."
This concluding paragraph gives me a bad feeling.
And, this is off-topic, but I must say it, Bush has picked a darn poor time to alienate so many of his base with the bizarre nomination of Harriet Meirs for SCOTUS.
