Problem is firing Friz would be seized on as "proof" of a cover up. This is an example of why these Special Prosecutors, a creation of the Democrat Congress in the 1980s to "Get Reagan", should of never been created. Basically you have a Prosecutor accountable to no one with a fiduciary interest in maintaining the prosecution as long as humanly possible. I enjoyed during the 1990s watching the Democrats hosted on their own petards with the Special Prosecutor game but enough is enough.

I suspect Fritz just punted. HE knew after all the media hype and hysterics about "27 coming indictments reaching into the very highest levels of the White House" that he would get the June Media reaming to end all political reaming if he came out and said "Nothing to this, all manufactured hysteria by Democrat activists".

So he punted, he found something to accuse someone in the White House about so they, not HE, would be the target of the Leftist hissy fit when Fritzmus turned out to be Fritzbust.

Great catch here anita! I don't envy their job at all. The only way I would want to cover anything at all in the mid-east would be as an embedded reported with a bunch of Oliver North's at my side. Otherwise undefended, you are always at the mercy of a bunch of wacked out terror types.

It's good to listen to and read the other side(s). I was reading the Plank and was amazed at how they could laud Guiliani for taking the high road and then barrel down the low road in their comments about his speech. How many times does the left repeat behavior and expect different results? :-)

I guess there were no photographers present to take a photo of 200 supporters.

Segment 2 of the panel will be a discussion of the Val-Pal-not-so-secrect-super-spy-Gal-Val game and Armitage. In first panel, Brit did slap down Juan: "No matter how many alternatives you look at Juan, they all amount to one thing: RETREAT"! Don't ya just love Brit?????

I suggest, The NYT knew about Armitage all along. It will be interesting to see how the MSM spins this to blame Bush anyways.

Also we have the post Labor Day talking point, "Terrorist is not really dangerous.". Even FNC is doing what is statistically more dangerous.

PS didn't anyone mention capturing the #2 alqeda guy in Iraq? FNC mentioned so fast you would think it was the old fast talking fedex spokesman.

This administration could do with a few more Tonys.

And State is a sea of cranky and antagonistic Kantians -- it's structural; talking (without meaning anything) is preferable to enforcement. It's not that there aren't any dissenters, but look at how John Bolton, an extraordinary diplomat, was left to hang.

The State Department is not an autonomous organization nor does it solely formulate American foreign policy. The buck stops at the WH and the NSC. For the most part, the State Department implements foreign policy and is only one player in its formulation.

The video of Fitzgerald's wild-eyed (and sweating) early press conference should be re-run and entitled "Portrait of a Liar".

DU says that Rick is getting b***h slapped by Casey

LOL. As with most posts over at the DUmp, you can just turn that one on its head.

I read that Williams column and felt like vomiting... what a smarmy, elitist swine. The horrible truth is that these MSM/DNC frontmen are actively trying to bring down an administration during wartime.

Simply put... they are traitors.

She is Elizabeth Bumiller of NYTimes, who is on leave to write a book on Condi Rice. Funny, they just captured the #2 al Queda terrorist in Iraq today. Pentagon report is not as gloomy as the MSM portrays.

Krystol is good today, but he should stop his anti-Rummy stance.

Powell was supposed to be a friend of W and withheld information.

Are you sure W should have been told?
The Justice Department yes, but the Prez in what could have been a crime..........not sure about that. Not sure he should be in the info loop........

Wish they would call the media on their biased opinion more often.

Brilliant take Laverne! There is no "down side" to calling the msm/dbm what they are,biased SOB's. They are not going to give us a fair shake anyway and I think Santorum has finally seen the light, ...now if a few others will only "get it."

It does fit one pattern, democrats want to play down CONSEQUENCES.

low statistic equal no consequences.
Clinton has not paid a price for his incompetence so the democrats have learned their lesson.

If people die, then democrats lie.

Ok. First of all we do have an indictment here of someone not telling the truth, and second, its a dastardly act.

Sumbitch.

Excuse my language. So now we have "dastardly act" as criteria to ruin innocent lives? Is "dastardly act" against the law? Who decides what's a "dastardly act"?

Was trashing and robbing the White House upon exit by the Clintons a dastardly act? Was having a young intern perform oral ministrations in our taxpayer paid oval office a dastardly act? Was publishing the extensive lies of Joe Wilson (a creep) a dastardly act?

Hell's bells, if dastardly act is reason enough to ruin lives we could come up with a lot of examples of this. The government would be filled with specially appointed prosecutors.

Did Armitage perform a dastardly act? Libby's under indictment. What's going to happen to Armitage?
