So its not years but not weeks either its months? Honestly what really turned me off about Fitz was his suggestion and implication that she was indeed covert and outed intentionally. In fact he accused Libby through innuendo of doing exactly that apparently trying to give his indictment some solid ground of an underlying crime. Libby may deserve a slap on the wrist but nothing more IF this is all he has.

He made no such suggestion. He plainly said he wasn't making such a contention.

Libby apparently makes such a suggestion himself, with his admission that he shouldn't talk about her on a non-secure line.

But I'm glad to know you are now on record as saying that lying to a grand jury deserves a 'slap on the wrist.' Does that apply regardless of political affiliation?

RIIIGHT. People don't routinely describe periods just like this one as "weeks." Every friggin' day.

That's right in line with your suggestion that people who lie to grand juries don't deserve much of anything in the way of punishment.

It is a good thing for you, apparently, that you don't find yourself in many situations where you rely on people to tell the truth, since you place such a low premium on it.
