Libby indicted on obstruction of justice, false statment and perjury charge...

What are you talking about? Are you aware of the order of succession? The Speaker of the House is next in line.

Current Events/History was not your best subject, eh? :o) Read the 25th Amendment. Can you say Gerald Ford and Nelson Rockefeller?

Begala's a cockroach. He practices 'insect politics'.

[Perdogg]

10 years for 1503

5 years each for 1623

20-years

He looks like he's about to have a massive anxiety attack. He's sweating quite a bit already. Just nerves or is he lying?

Reference post # 38 & 40

"And now President Bush can finally shut down the liberal government jobs program known as the CIA."

"suicide watch"

I suspect a mass exodus of treasonous spies and politicians. Libby can call anyone to the witness stand and Goss will make sure of it.

I'll bet that there's a mad rush to inflict another 9/11 to stop the proceedings. These proceedings may be how the Democrats can finally shed their party of its extremists liberal leftist leaders. Otherwise, they're shackled to a diabolic corpse for any election, and cursed with no future.

according to the indictment Libby first learned about Plame from the STATE DEPT

How come they knew?

There are a lot of stupid that still believe Clinton was impeached because of the oral sex, and not that he was being sued for harassment and was not truthful about this case probably involving sexual harassment.

MSM is dying. Their last hurah..... The new media rules and we are all part of it. Remember how the MSM and the SLIME or (Socialist Liberal Internal Media Establishment) tried to throw the last two presidential elections. 2000 calling Florida early prior to the polls closing. 2004 "allowing" themselves to be "fooled" by publishing forged government documents and reporting them to be legitimate. Both times they were shot down. The SLIME is just holding on by a hair thin thread. They know their power is fading and the people are becoming more educated and informed through outlets like this. They are getting desperate.

I'm a little surprised that Fritz is so sure Plame's classified status was not breached. I have my doubts about that.

[Semper Paratus]

Libby can call anyone to the witness stand

And his lawyers should ask for notes, phone logs, computer hard disks of all the reporters and the newspapers they worked for!

[Ernest_at_the_Beach]

For an uplift of the spirits see this:

LAT: Americans won't let Democrats lose Iraq

[FairOpinion]

What really should be investigated is who at the CIA was using his/her government power for political purposes: sending Wilson on the Africa jaunt.

THAT is the real security breech.

[sheikdetailfeather]

Rush Limbaugh said Libby's lawyer will definitely be asking some hard questions about a lot of New York Times interviews.

[rip033]

Still did she have "Covert" status? Fitz is on Fox but I haven't heard she was covert.

[conservativepoet]

He indicated her classified status was outed and was not known by any neighbors, etc.

[conservativepoet]

Yet no charges on that count.

"...but the only way to truly "erase" a drive/disk is with a sledgehammer

...AFTER you drag a screwdriver tip across the surface face about 50 times.

[CharlesWayneCT]

I wasn't clear. There are two parts to this:
1) Every reporter (3) has testified contrary to what Libby has testified to.
2) Libby testified that he didn't know about Plame, when not only all the reporters, but also other information, shows that he DID know about Plame before he talked to reporters.

He could argue that when he told the reporters he didn't know Plame he was just lying, but when he was asked in the GJ why he said he didn't know her, he said it was because he really didn't know her.

"And his lawyers should ask for notes, phone logs, computer hard disks of all the reporters and the newspapers they worked for!"

I'm trying to calculate the odds of Hillary and Kerry being two of those who are subpoenaed. So far, I give it a one in two chances. I know that they seem high for now (given to whom Wilson supported and donated money), but what do you give it?
