Andrea Mitchell: I 'Misspoke' on Plame ID

[A CA Guy]

Which is why they belonged under oath long ago.

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

Come to think of it, I think Libby WANTED to be indicted.

[beyond the sea]

She's a back pedaling liar.

She's an ugly woman with an ugly arrogant attitude ............ with twelve too many facelifts........... just about four more than the number of the hairs on her husband's pathetic combover!

[carola]

Novak's column didn't explain that Plame was covert, only that she worked for the CIA on WMD issues, or something like that, so Mitchell couldn't have learned that Plame was supposedly covert from Novak.

[popdonnelly]

Everybody in this matter is lying. Mitchell is lying, Wilson is lying, Cooper is lying. But the only one in trouble is Libby.

[lawnguy]

She can try it again in court.

[Petronski]

It's been said already, but I'll say it again: "She's a back-pedalling liar."

[carola]

I don't think she's ugly, though when she was younger I thought she had a masculine face and her skin was heavily pock-marked. She seems to have had that taken care of. I didn't realize, until I started hearing her on Imus, what a left-winger she is.

[popdonnelly]

It seems to take quite a crew of liars to trash the Bush Administration. Wonder why.

[Liberty Valance]

eh tu brute?

[popdonnelly]

Sounds like Mitchell doesn't want to get purged. She saw what happened to Judith Miller. The liberal MSM - you're either with 'em or against 'em.

[Dave S]

all potential acts of perjury in that grand jury should have been investigated and treated equally. the only way to make a potential perjurious act into an indictment, is to determine what is the basis for truth. unless you investigate, you can't determine that.

And you know that this wasnt done, how? Were you a bug on the grand jury wall?

You seem to be willing to excuse anything the press has done in this. you say "Fitzgerald was charged with investigating whether white house people leaked the name". Imagine Plame had been covert, and the investigation showed it was Judith Miller who leaked her name - are you saying she should skate because Fitzgerald was only charged with indicting someone from the administration

Miller couldnt be indicted for leaking the name because she was not a government employee with access to classified information. The press can publish classified material and they cant be criminally charged for doing so. If Miller was the one that leaked it, someone in the government had to leak it to her first. She couldnt have been the leaker.

Come to think of it, I think Libby WANTED to be indicted.

Losing track of reality are we?

[popdonnelly]

Seems to me there must be a media campaign to get the story straight: nobody knew who Plame was until Novak's column came out.

[Patriot from Philly]

And possibly Rove. Do we know where the case against him stands. Apparently, Fitzgerald should advise him by next Tuesday (the 15th) whether he will be indicted.

If he's indicted, I'll be really, really angry. We'll have another 2 weeks of media hyperventilating.

[ladyinred]

Oh listen to this garbage! Makes you sick how easily they lie.

[samadams2000]

R-U-S-S-E-R-T

[nopardons]

And the sky is blue.

[Kozak]

So Wilson and Mitchell "misspeak" and Scooter Libby lies, is that about right?

...and may get 30 years for it.

[freekitty]

"She's a back pedaling liar."

I agree.
