So Judith Miller is in jail protecting the Bush administration?..Yeah, right..

[Dog]

I guess the Katrina Bush bash is over...back to the Valerie Plame attack...:-)

[The Electrician]

After initially promising to fire anyone found to have leaked information in the case

Isn't that statement false? If the "journalist" can't even get simple facts straight, why should we believe anything written in his article?

[conservativehusker]

...trying to determine who in the Bush administration leaked CIA operative Valerie Plame‘s identity.

No media bias here....She's in Jail to protect Bush...RRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT!!

She's protecting herself......and maybe the Times...

Yeah, the Katrina plan is obviously starting to fail, so Plame is the "Old Reliable" scandal. LOL.

Give it up, libs.

Abrams, who represents The New York Times, said Miller was "safe" but that conditions in jail were "grim."

Abrams: ITS A JAIL! Its spozed to be grim.

DSM, Iraq, Karl Rove, Mother Sheehan, Katrina, DSM, Iraq, Karl Rove, Mother Sheehan, Katrina:

Let's play pin the tail on the donkey.

"She is there (in jail) for a reason. At this time, the reason is still there. She made a promise and, unless properly released from her promise by her source, she has no choice but to continue to take the position that she‘s taking," Abrams said.

Well, since Rove releases anyone to talk about this and did so publically, we can only assume she is protecting Joe Wilson himself.

There's no way she would protect a rebuplican.

[Sacajaweau]

I'd guess she's protecting Mandy Grunwald...and Mandy's best friend "Hillary Clinton" (who was named after Sir Edmund Hillary). Yeh, right....Bwahahahahaha

[WoodstockCat]

Remember the "eight ball answer globe"?

They need one with "Katrina", "Karl Rove", "Cindy Sheehan", "WMD", "Iraq War", "Afghanistan War", "Ohio 2004" and "Florida 2000" to get up every day and ask the globe

"Who do I blame Bush for today?"

[Wil H]

I emailed them challenging them to give up their (multiple) sources that it was a Bush Administation official or print a retraction..

[cyncooper]

She made a promise and, unless properly released from her promise by her source, she has no choice but to continue to take the position that she‘s taking," Abrams said.

I detect a crack in Judy's armor...

[Peach]

Let's hope you're right, cyn.

Isn't that statement false? If the "journalist" can't even get simple facts straight, why should we believe anything written in his article?

What Bush said was that he would "take appropriate" action. I believe it was McClellan who later said if someone was found to have leaked information they would no longer be a part of the administration.

the dream scenario here is the Fitzgerald goes away with no indictment, but dumps a case regarding the conduct of the CIA itself into the lap of DOJ, who convenes another grand jury on that matter to which Miller's testimony would be applicable - and she remains in jail. she is holding out now because she sees the light at the end of the tunnel - another month perhaps. let her look at another year, and she'll sing.

[Peach]

Oooh. That WOULD be interesting.

[cyncooper]

Nobody in the administration said anything about firing anyone found to have leaked.

The statement was about breaking the law and/or leaking classified information knowingly. Big diff and something this adminstration would not do. Obviously.
