"He's a vile, detestable, moralistic person with no heart and no conscience who believes he's been tapped by God to do very important things," one White House ally said

Like others, I wonder who this White House "ally" is.

In general terms, if someone lied to the prosecutor, he needs to go. They are all big boys, and they know the rules.

On the other hand, if it is as some have said, and its a matter of a forgotten conversation which has been voluntarily reported, then an indictment will be an injustice. If, if, that is the case, then such an indictment should be fought in court, and it will be beaten. And the prosecutor will look like a fool before its over.

This does not take anything away from Wilson/Plame. Wilson has transparently lied almost every time he has opened his mouth or put pen to paper, and I am disturbed that he has so far gotten by with it.

The Niger Affair is worth some serious journalistic effort, but no serious journalist has been inspired to pick away at the scabs on this story. I would have liked for a prosecutor to have burrowed into this affair, and gotten to the bottom of it, but it seem unlikely thats going to happen. There is a big story at the bottom of this well, but no one is interested.

Once the media formulated the dubious "Bush outed Plame to punish Wilson" theory, all other possibilities were ignored. Groupthink is a very potent force in the MSM, made even more potent by the fact that journalists really do not believe they have biases.

No one is talking about the activities of Brewster Jennings.

What exactly were they doing.
