Will Patrick J. Fitzgerald put a real Target Letter from the U.S. Dep't of Justice on this Web site?

http://www.usdoj.gov/usao/iln/osc/index.html

If so, what will it say?

[TSchmereL]

Doesn't it appear to be something that would be sent before the target testifies?

I am hoping for the best, preparing for the worst, and praying for our President, Vice President, and all the service personnel of the United States of America.

Well look at the bright side... wouldn't you like to see Joe Wilson cross-examined under oath? Bring it on!

[TSchmereL]

As I said, I am hoping for the best.

By the way, sorry that I did not get the link to Fitzgerald's Web site to appear as a link.

http://www.usdoj.gov/usao/iln/osc/index.html

It was supposed to look like the above link but it did not happen.

I would like to see the weasels in the CIA that attempted to manipulate a Presidential election get their cajones fed to the sharks.

Whether Mr. Fitzgerald throws the penalty flag at the players that started it or those that retaliated remains to be seen.

Isn't this weird?

It seems from the facts that the least likely targets are Libby/Rove/Cheney, and the most likely indictees will be Wilson, Plame, and miscellaneous members of the press and CIA (which all have a record of public lying and misbehavior in this matter).

What's wrong with this picture?

[TSchmereL]

The question to which I have trouble finding a good answer is Why would any DoJ Prosecutor poke his finger in the PoTUS' eye by indicting his top aides without the kind of proof that would lead to a conviction?

Who said "If you shoot at the king, you better kill him?"

[rhombus]

What's wrong with this picture?

And the media wants Shield Laws?

YES!! I know it's a little selfish on my part, but I'm actually glad this is a possibility.

[Ragnorak]

I've come to expect a lot to be wrong with pictures these days. But in this case it is important to keep in mind that we really don't know anything.

Face it, Fitzgerald knows what he's going to do and he isn't the one talking. Neither is anyone who he has confided in. Consider the source of the leaks and consider the MSM's practices on selective reporting and you wind up realizing that we don't know anything at all until Fitzgerald acts.

I have a whole new skepticism. If the newspapers say an earthquake in a country killed 50,000 people, I used to question the number but not the earthquake or that people died. Now, I question whether the earthquake ever happened and even if the country they said it happened in even exists. The reporting has gotten that bad. Hopefully this will be one of those cases that illustrates it.

[Sister_T]

Good point.

[syriacus]

f the newspapers say an earthquake in a country killed 50,000 people, I used to question the number but not the earthquake or that people died. Now, I question whether the earthquake ever happened and even if the country they said it happened in even exists. The reporting has gotten that bad.

The Times's motto is:
Maul the news, with a reddish tint.

[leftcoaster]

There was a story last week about Rove and/or Libby having been advised that they may be in legal jepoardy. It was an ambiguous statement, but some inferred that it meant they had received target letters.

Now this morning, the Financial Times is reporting that insiders are saying the target letters were being prepared or sent yesterday (Tuesday). So if this latest story is true, the first story from last week meant nothing.

[RightthinkinAmerican]

And he'll simply lie like the lying liar that all libs are, and would have the public believe that WE are.
