He should not have answered question one without first having consulted with HIS criminal defense attorney.

As I posted earlier on this thread, Lewis Libby IS a criminal defense lawyer, and a very good one. Marc Rich didn't hire him for nothing. He probably thought (a) I am not lying, so I have nothing to worry about, and (b)I know how these things work, I don't need to spend 50 grand on a lawyer to tell me what I already know.

Remember, witnesses to a grand jury are not allowed to have their attorney in the room with them when they testify. The most a lawyer could have done for Libby was to rehearse his testimony beforehand; they would have had no way of knowing who else had testified or what they had said. When Libby was confronted with Russert's and Cooper's testimony, he had no choice but to stick to his story and hope for the best.

I pity the transcriber.

I know. They'll come back to the transcriber several times and say "you didn't put this down right, what Fitz says doesn't make any sense." All he can say is "check the video, it wasn't clear then when he first said it."

No. He should not be talking or answering questions.

Wouldn't this provide good grounds for Libby's defense attorneys to claim bias, ask for change of venue etc?

Wilson's attorney is on Fox saying that there will be more "proceedings" in front of the Grand Jury.

Again saying Wilson told the truth and was attacked.

Wilson says the office of the president is defiled.

He says he's going to make speeches, but leave Valerie and the kids alone!

Ah, how exactly is WILSON going to be involved in this case against Libby?

I have to go get my driver's license renewed. If anything important happens please ping me.

OMG, here's Joe Wilson's attorney. Wilson reserves the right to speak about this in the near future. Request: his wife & his family are private people even if he decides to speak about it. OH REALLY?! In other words, I can trash the President but he can't fight back.

Well, I CAN TALK ABOUT YOU AND YOUR WIFE, JERK!

Oh this is rich, the lawyer for Wilson reading a statement that says "My wife and family have not chosen to be in the public glare....."

Meanwhile Fox has a split screen up of the Cover photo of Wilson and Plame on Vanity Fair Magazine!

LOL!

So Wilson thinks he can lie about the administration and the war, and we're supposed to stay silent about his wifey pooh who set him up for a trip which gave him cover to lie?

I don't think so.

At No Such Agency we used to joke that the Kremlin knew what was going on just by which license plates were in the parking lot at any given time.

If you drive your own car to Langley or 'The Building' you aren't classified or covert. Anyone with eyes and a internet capable computer can find out who you are by the plate on the back of your car. Plames job description might be classified (many intel job descriptions are), but fact she worked for the CIA wasn't.

It's like listening to the love-child of Clinton and Kerry.

I didn't think Hillary stole enough spoons to be rich enough for J F'n K. Maybe she traded in those spoons for more commodity futures that hit big.
