This popped up out of nowhere; think there might be some rumors running around the white house press corpse?

Garbage.....nothing more but trying to keep the story alive...

Fitzgerald has not indicted anyone for outing Plame....he will not say whether it was a crime for outing her....it "appears" Rove will be indicted...

The longer this drags out the more it becomes apparent this is nothing more than a witchhunt to satisfy the rats...

And it won't this summer either, with a decision expected this summer from Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald that will finally determine whether a top White House aide will face serious federal charges in the CIA leak case. Those old enough to remember Watergate will recall the fiercely hot summer of '74, when scandal revelations brought down Richard Nixon's presidency.

LOL! Oh, man, I know it's not funny at all, but I do find it hilarious how the MSM will insist with a straight face that they are unbiased.

Oh, this is there Watergate. The Marine incident is their My Lai, Iraq is their Vietnam. Boy, the media really wants us to return to the good old days of the 70s, well good for the media, bad for the rest of us.

Silly me... I saw 'CIA LEAK CASE' and thought of the black prisons the commie media exposed to embarrass our allies.

LMAO, I love the attempt to compare Bush to Nixon and this "scandal" to Watergate. Some scandal. Fitzy can't even find a real crime to charge anyone with. The best he can come up with is indicting on a fuzzy memory. LOL, only the pukes in the media give a flying you know what about this story anymore, them and a few in the swamp fever crowd over at the DU and KOS. When was the last time anyone you know had two words to say about this story? Yet the lapdog media keeps hyping this fart of a story with its breathless predictions of a "hot summer" for the White House comparable to 1974 at the Nixon White House. Give me a break.

Where's the story about this being a witch hunt? The story about the vendetta the special prosecutor has against the administration? Oh yeah, this is not a Democrat being investigated.

No kidding. There's been nothing new on this story for months. But the media just keeps beating the sh-t out of it trying to ring dry a little more blood out of this stone. Crap, why don't they just resurrect Iran/Contra?

And where are the endless price tags being attached to this investigation like the fictional $40 million figure the Democrats and their media lapdogs attached to the Clinton perjury story? I really would like to know what this enormous fart of an investigation is costing us. So far it's produced nothing but innuendo and misinterpretation of the law.

Also notice too, that the article doesn't even mention the well known fact that FITZY KNOWS WHO THE LEAKER is, and has chosen NOT to indict -- because there WAS NO CRIME. ABC was disappointed that didn't get their fitzmas, so now they are looking for fitzicane (bad attempt at humor for hurricane season)!

It's amazing how poor the reporting on this story has been. First off, no one in DC cares about this as the article states. I live in DC and no one cares. People are not talking about it, except the political types on both sides.

This article has not one new piece of news on this story, it is only speculation by an unnamed source, who unlike most unnamed sources, admits he's clueless.

So what's the agenda here. Get My Lai and, ok my ribs are hurting, Watergate going at the same time.

It's really time for Gonzalez to give this guy 30 days to wrap it up then to pull the plug. The independent council statute expired in the late 90s. Fitzloser serves at the pleasure of the attorney general. Time to give this guy and his make-work investigation his walking papers.

No one believes the scandal will approach the grand scale of Watergate

But that won't deter dimwits like John Cochran from making the comparison...

I think the whole thing will shut down by the end of this week. Fitzy knows he doesn't have ANYTHING, Cooper is his primary witness against Rove, and Cooper has already been shown to be unreliable to Fitzy's case against Libby. Fitzy will look like a prosecutor out of control if he doesn't shut down soon. It would be nice to see someone take Fitzy to task for all the errors he has put out in the public domain, starting with his Libby indictment presser.
