If Plame was not a covert agent all Fitzgerald had to do was say no laws were broken and millions of dollars plus people's reputations would have been saved.

I guess DC is just operating the way that the American voters programed it to do, waste a lot of money and ruin a lot of reputations.

He may be trying to justify his existence.

We will find out soon if Fitzgerald is a Good Lawyer or a Good Democrat, because you can't be both.

Please, don't make sense!!!!

If Fitzgerald had done that, then there would be cries of "whitewash" and "cover-up"!

I still think there is a pretty good chance that there is going to be an indictment or referral of somebody or something! (The big question is still "who" or "what"!) The Times wouldn't have thrown Miller over the side if they thought she wasn't toxic, and who knows about Libby if he sold his soul to Marc Rich.

And what do you make of Fitzgerald showing classified documents to the grand jury? Geez, if the CIA and the press corps are faxing classified materials to each other all over DC, there's a big, big problem here!

I'd put the chances of anyone being indicted under the Intelligence Identities Protection Act of 1982 at less than 1%.

Wilson is a demonstrable liar, Miller's claim that she spent 85 days in jail to protect a source whose name she can't remember is laughable, and who knows about Libby.

Can a newspaper be indicted?

I don't think Rove's in danger except for "some BS charge", like forgetting about the Cooper conversation, and it's highly unlikely they can prove that he did that deliberately.
