The poor guy will be in debt for millions by the time this is over, and for what ?
The prosecutor would do better to investigate some of the harmful leaks starting with the Pulitzer winners.
Said it many times, the plug needs to be pulled on Fitzzzzzzzzzzz! Fishing on a non criminal leak is definitely an indication all Fitzzzzzzz is looking for is building his name. He is an egotistical maniac.
I wish the courts would order Plame, Wilson, Fitzgerald, CIA leakers, and several reporters to repay the government for all the monies spent on this 'witch hunt' that has been orchestrated by the left imo.
This case needs to be thrown out; Fitzy is really off his rocker if he thinks the annotations on the Op-Ed demonstrate a plan to destroy Plame, via going after Wilson. Cheney's comments are completely ligit, and if you look at the underlines in the article, Cheney highlights all the lies Wilson was spewing. I'm truly apalled that the judges have allowed this to go on. Wilson was lieing, and Cheney et al, are supposed to sit back and let the lies stand? This was not an attack on a whistle blower, it was an attempt to correct the record with facts versus Wilson's lies. The longer Fitzy keeps open his grand jury, the more ridiculous he looks.
Well,,, why isn't Fitzy investigating this?????
It sounds to me like Joe and Val were just taking Uncle Sucker for a free ride, on the taxpayers dime, to smear/discredit the opposing politcal party!
Hey Fitz!!! Pull yer head outta the portajohn and lookit where it's coming from!!
"The longer Fitzy keeps open his grand jury, the more ridiculous he looks."
He is playing to a certain audience that he believes won't find him ridiculous - i.e., just a useful tool. Looks like he's angling for a high position in a future Jamie Gorelick Justice Department.
Thanks for ping- this is beyond absurd. Reading Cheney's notes it seems he was simply wondering what was going on. It's very hard to read sinister intent- implied or otherwise.
THAT, brother and sister Freepers, is precisely why President Bush sent Gen. Hayden, former NSA Chief in charge of establishing the program to "cross check and listen in on pertinent phone calls and messages to suspected terrorists (and political spies in the CIA) inside and outside the U.S."
Some new court filings, from last night, here are the links:
A filing from Team Libby: http://americablog.blogspot.com/libbymay19.pdf
A filing from fitzy: http://americablog.blogspot.com/fitzmay19.pdf
All about discovery.
...and their loyal servant, Fitzgerald.
Absolutely.
In fact, the annotations are damning to Wilson, as it proves that the VP had not sent him on that trip, as Wilson had claimed. It also shows that the idea of sending Wilson at all was questionable.
Hopefully, after Libby is acquited, he'll write a book and earn enough money to pay his legal debts.

4 The government evidently wants to argue to the jury that “facts that were viewed as important” by the Vice President would have been important to Mr. Libby too, and that the Vice President’s notations can be used to show what Mr. Libby focused on during July 2003.
These arguments are tantamount to an acknowledgement that the state of mind of witnesses other than Mr. Libby will be important at trial – precisely what Mr. Libby has been arguing in the pending motion.
Documents reflecting the administration’s response to Mr. Wilson’s claims about what he learned during his trip and to whom his report was sent are discoverable, whether Mr. Libby has previously seen them or not.

2 It is unclear to the defense how the government intends to authenticate this document given that it has previously represented that it does not intend to call the Vice President as a witness. of 10
The only person that can say what he mean by the annotated notes is the Veep. To me, it sounds like the Veep was asking questions that should have been asked not a smear campaign against a woman who, along with her hubby, outed herself.
Exactly; only wilson, cooper, old media, dnc, and fitzy can read those commnts and the underlines as an attempt to smear wilson and his gal-pal val.
