So what do you think?

Did Friz simply feed Libby to the sharks since he knew he had to give the media mob something or get the press reaming to end all reaming if he had come out and said "nothing to see here, no crime, move along now". Or did he do it to grab his 15 minutes of fame?

So Mr Fritzgerald, did you do this show trial because of your out of control ego or merely due to cowardice?

I think Fitzgerald had some personal animus towards Libby. He didn't like the fact that Libby called Mark Rich to congratulate him on his pardon even though Libby was the VP's Chief of Staff. I think it was payback.

Ego and a career move. He's hoping for a Democratic Admin and a high DoJ position.

"So what do you think?"

Fitzy is bucking for a supreme court appointment from the next democrat president. His "day job" is poking around in Illinois, mostly going after Republicans, but with enough democrats in the mix to give the media an orgasm. It does not appear that he will not touch the criminal Daly and Blagojevich regimes.

NOPE. Fitzgerald has had it out for the Bush administration since faulty CIA information was supposedly the blame for the terrorists on Sept 11 and getting this country to invade Iraq. The CIA has two major flaws. 1) Most of the personnel in it are liberals and hate the Bush administration just like the State Department. 2) When Clinton was in power, he castrated it just like he did the military. Personnel numbers were slashed, not making it possible for the CIA to train new people and keep seasoned field agents. If Clinton did not the military forces and funds to keep it going, the war in Iraq would is be close to done or already won. This is why troops are already doing their third or fourth tours already.
As far as Libby is concerned, Fitzgerald went phishing and caught Libby making an error in his statements. Everyone knows, only Republicans and conservatives have to be perfect while the libs and the dems lie and cheat their way in and out of wallets.
