Too bad Libby destroyed his own documents, homework, archives, to obstruct justice. The judge is being very lenient to allow Libby such measures. It means he thinks the case is pretty solid. If he can't win it at grand jury he's cooked. He was trying to get enough info fromt his to leverage others, high stakes extortion.

How sadly this pantomime farce replays itself. Death squads in Iraq. The terrorists aren't like us, they hate us for our death squads. Central America , redux. Iraq/Contra and ambassador Negroponte.

Death squads in Iraq.

The terrorists aren’t like us, they hate us for our death squads.

Central America , redux.

Iraq/Contra and ambassador Negroponte.

My guess is they'll claim that the parts that have been blackened out are the parts that they need! I'm glad to see this judge has got some balls and doesn't cow-tow to the white house. We'll have to wait and see. Time for a Long Island ice tea, gotta go.

Has anyone else noticed this but me? 2) Why did the AP/CNN bury the fact that 250 pages of e-mails were "found" by the VP's office recently in the final paragraph of its Libby coverage, which also was printed/published last Friday afternoon? Why did no other MSM outlet cover this, and certainly no nightly news program? 3) Was Cheney interviewed by the FBI? Did Fitzgerald confiscate computers to obtain these e-mails? Why can't I find a reliable, MSM answer to these questions? 4) Why won't Fitzgerald do the right thing and indict Karl Rove immediately so that he can be relieved of his "Reconstruction Czar" duties in the wake of Katrina? Wouldn't that help the long-suffering people of New Orleans get the help (and trailers) they need? It strikes me as no accident Karl Rove is the reconstruction czar and that only a tiny fraction of the money set aside for Katrina reconstruction has been spent, and that thousands of trailers sit empty in Arkansas --this has Karl Rove's stench about it--the slower the reconstruction, the less likely the Democratic leaning voters will return to vote in Louisiana in time for the fall elections, if at all. The longer Fitzgerald delays indicting Rove, the longer the people affected by Katrina suffer. No? 4) In regard to the point above about Bush pardoning Libby, doesn't Libby have to plead guilty first or be convicted first before he can be pardoned? 1) Why is it that news of developments in the the LIbby/Plamegate case seem to only come out on Friday afternoons, at least in the MSM?

I have one question though...can't the CIA and White House still refuse to turn over even a "summary" of the PDBs and claim "national security?" I realize Libby's trying the ole' Ollie North defense, and find it hard to believe this administration will follow any judge's order. It's quite obvious they think they're above this nation's laws. Why do you think they'll comply with this order? Thanks for the interpretation and your vigilance on this matter.

A policeman has a "right" to use deadly force if he is protecting his own life, or the life of another. But if a policeman kills another for the purpose of preventing himself embarrassment, then the policeman is guilty of murder. If Cheney has no viable justification, and he has not presented one, then Cheney has committed an act of treason. He has confessed on videotape, and was clearly under no duress when the confession was made. Yet Cheney's part in this affair is virtually ignored. Anyone care to tell me why.

Libby is such a hoot. He thinks he has got it made with his connections andhe thinks he can play a good game. But I sense a turn of events on his defense...I am waiting for the big one..I want to see the trial..:o) I think that would be a good thing for a few months to see instead of some missing blonde in some south sea resort. Good catch, Larry and thanks for the interpretation on things. If it weren’t so serious, it would be funny. Libby is such a hoot.
