Is Libby first to be indicted since Grant Admin?

[Voteamerica]

Fitzgerald indicted something like 60 people before he got to Governor Ryan in Illinois. In light of that example it would be very surprising if this were Fitzgerald's last stop in this investigation, particularly since he made it clear that Libby's "obstruction" prevented him from determining the motive of the release of the supposedly secret information.

Why would Tim Russert lie?

Thanks for the info...it'll be a handy reminder in the days to come

I think they're making a distinction between "White House official" and "administration official".

Guess it depends on how you define "is":) Thanks for helping sort out "fake but accurate" spin

Note for the record that I never said I agreed with the distinction. I only pointed it out.

I know and it's appreciated. It's a good observation.

can you say Spiro? I can think of several people who have left office, like Espy and Cisneros under Klinton and Agnew. What about the Johnson era where there no work houses or indictments from his people?

Considering all the high officials who have been indicted, someone had to go to a lot of trouble to research this tidbit of a technicality.
