The case had nothing to do with any leak or any known crime.

Fitzys next career stop is Court TV.
That does not look like the face of a confident man.
I say we know by 5pm today. There is no case, and the jurors, no doubt, would like to be done with this.
I think we should have a crack up pool for after the not guilty verdict...to see how long it takes Chris Matthews to lose control on air.
He dropped his case(s) against King Richie for this circus sideshow. Maybe he can get back to bagging REAL criminals.
It will be a hung jury. There will be atleast one DU-type that will maintain Libby is guilty.
Ive been working on this a while :
Libby Code:
If you take the first letters of the last words of the consecutive paragraphs starting with paragraph number 33 in Libby's Grand Jury testimony it clearly spells "ASPEN ROOTS"
and if you do the same thing starting with paragraph 206 it spells " ROVE IS DEAD"....
This is Freaky
Coincidence? I dont think so
Late Friday afternoon is a good bet for a verdict as they consider another weekend stuck with other.
Yeah, Fritz should be scared. If he can't produce on this one, he probably not be able to keep milking this cash cow and will have to get a real job.
Did the AP just give Wilson a promotion? I believe he was never made an ambassador. He filled in as an "acting-ambassador" at one point in his career, if my memory is correct.
Well, let's see what precedents we have for sentencing...
Bill Clinton guilty of perjury...lost license to practice law for 5 years.
Sandy Burger, guilty of treason...no jail time, 100 hrs community service picking up trash, suspension of security clearance for 3 years (iirc).
Given these facts it seems that if sentencing were consistent, Libby might be sentenced to no Cable TV or computer for a month and not be allowed to use the word CIA for 5 years.
Of course the dems are such hypocrites on such things...I think they all should have the book thrown at them if they're guilty. Clinton put in prison for 30 years, Libby for 30 years and Burger hung.
Not with that jury. Scooter should never have been indicted in the first place but I'm afraid the jury will still find him guilty.
Six hours total deliberation.
I couldn't get passed the headline. What leak?
Is that six degrees of Larry Johnson? s/
