Of course you're not buying it. Liberals' only believe what suits their agenda.

When you can't win with reason, resort to ad hominem.

No, you are operating with your own set of facts, and you simply ignore anything to the contrary. You're hellbent on Libby's absolute guilt. You've already convicted Libby without a trial. If you're not a liberal, you sure do a good job playing the part of one. You've been working awfully hard doing damage control for the Left's case against Libby across this forum since the Woodward news broke.

Fitzgerald's entire premise has been knocked down, and no prosecution can survive that. His premise is that Libby was the original "leaker", that Libby engaged in a campaign to smear Wilson and take revenge by "outing" his wife, and that anything Libby has said to the prosecution and grand jury that contradicts this premise is a "lie". Fitzgerald's own stubbornness has been his undoing. Any reasonable person can now see that Fitzgerald's account of what happened is false, and therefore he lacks the credibility to accuse anyone else of giving a false account.

FITZGERALD: He was at the beginning of the chain of phone calls, the first official to disclose this information outside the government to a reporter. And then he lied about it afterwards, under oath and repeatedly.
Woodward's testimony has blown a hole in the very foundation of events presented by Fitzgerald, and Libby's lawyers will drive a truck through it.
