Free Scooter!!!!
I've never liked Russert. I think he is a deranged leftist who trys to hide his leftwing idealogy. He worked for Mario Cuomo of New York, so how fair and objective could this goof be?
Unjust justice Bump! Thanks for posting. Free Scooter.
Clarice Feldman is doing a great job. That's two great pieces from her posted here tonight.
Somehow the author seems to think that the facts will matter to this DC jury. What is he smoking? Scooter has about as much chance of being acquited as OJ did of being convicted ... read ZERO!
Now, Fitzgerald finds himself facing a charge that he obstructed his own investigation.
ROTFLMAOPMP
She is a jem isn't she? Her analysis is great to read. Tomorrow should be quite interesting when Russert takes the stand yet again! Court starts at 0930....
Another good piece by Ms. Feldman, thanks for posting.
This is very revealing. Russet proves, like Dan Rather did in 2004, that even the top tier of the news media are sloppy, amoral, semi-competent hacks.
Russert is a Democrat who works for the Democrats. I don't care what his title is at NBC.
And how can he get on a witness stand and tell a jury he didn't tell Libby about Plame, when he told an FBI agent that he did! The man's an idiot!
Here's my theory. Russert would only testify for the prosecution under the terms of an agreement. My guess is that the agreement is that Russert would not be asked about his "confidential sources". Here's betting that he had some other sources, and they did in fact tell him who Wilson's wife was.
You KNOW the jury will believe him..celebrities do not lie.
bump for later
Randy and Tim.
I haven't heard Rush blabbering about what a straight, honest, great guy Russert is lately. If anybody was really paying attention to this trial, the RAT MSM would be destroyed by their own dishonesty.
IMUS: Well, [Alan Murray's] question seems plain. "Do we have any idea how widely known it was in Washington that Joe Wilson's wife worked at the CIA. And you said that his wife worked . . .
MITCHELL: When you look at my answer, I said: "It was widely known - and we were trying to track down who among the foreign community was the envoy to Niger." So far, so good. Okay? [Quoting herself again.] "So some of us began to pick up on that. But frankly I wasn't aware of her actual role at the CIA and the fact the she had a covert role involving weapons of mass destruction, not until Bob Novak wrote it.
IMUS: Well, that part is clear.
MITCHELL: That's clear. So, what's not clear is that I didn't know about her role at the CIA until Bob Novak wrote it. And I obviously got it muddled.
IMUS: Well, what this suggests to me is that, you knew she worked at the CIA but you didn't know what she did there.
MITCHELL: Yes, but that's not . . .
IMUS: Is that fair? Did you know that?
MITCHELL: I didn't.
--snip--
IMUS: Well, then - why did you say you did, Andrea?
MITCHELL: Because, I messed up.
IMUS: Oh.
--snip--
IMUS: Did you ever have a discussion with Russert about it?
MITCHELL: Sure, after the fact.
IMUS: Oh.
I messed up
,,,,,,,,,,, ,,Houston....I think we've got a problem
I hope and pray that the jury is smart enough and unbiased enough to see the truth in this case, but how hard would it really be to fix these kinds of cases? They already have the press. Clinton set it up so he had only crooked prosecutors, and they hired based on loyalty, not merit. Clinton arranged it so that cases filed in federal court somehow got assigned to the right judge. The Dems control half the judges anyhow.
It really is getting scary.
