Mountain of Evidence

The prosecutors will have a tough time with this defense witness. Certainly they will have a very difficult time if they attempt to impeach the witness. This guys has a really outstanding reputation.
In view of the revelation earlier that Prosecutor Fitzgerald wanted to indict Libby in October, 2004 in an "October Surprise" to undermine the White House re-election campaign, I would now expect this case to be dropped.
A bit OT... but what ever happened to Alexander? One night he's co-host, the next he's gone.
I think the problem is that while Wilson tells a whopper* on the MSM every day, he's been clever enough not to have told lies under oath.
*Max Boot: "Joe Wilson has sold more whoppers than Burger King."
What is really disgusting. . .is that MSM and yes. . .FoxNews. . .all these folks have known the truth here.
Granted Fox News at least has given 'hints' and negative comments along the way. . .but NO one; has blasted this guy out of the water; when they have every option available, to do just that.
I worry that since it has not happened yet - despite even Scooter Libby's indictment - that maybe he truth will never entirely. ..'out here'. . .
Seems way past time; and the wrong people paying for this ride - given, compliments of the Leftist Demrats.
"Here comes Kate".
He took lessons from Schummer.
I can't wait to hear Wilson telling either the truth or his normal lies to a Libby jury. Imagine 20 witnesses testifying that they heard Wilson say that Valerie was with the CIA. If Wilson "can't recall" then why should Libby be able to. If he can then he confirms that "everybody knew". If he lies then he risks perjury. This is a classic rock and a hard place for Wilson. Gota love it.
I coulda, shoulda been a "lawya".
It is time for the 9th to go.
Batchelor did all the work on that show anyway.

I don't know, I have a feeling this admnistration is playing another poker hand here. It doesn't seem possible that Libby will be convicted of anything. There is a lot of posturing and huffing and puffing, but, it's going to take all the Dems' energy to keep the spotlight on this and away from their failure as a party. The Pubbies need to keep the focus on the policies that are working and the Dem obstructionism that is still running unchecked.
Several newsies have also reported that Wilson has done this, prior to the so-called "outing." As I have always said, someone needs to investigate the CIA and in particular, the Wilsons.

hmmmm....you are going to have to help me out here. . .(I know I should KNOW this. . .but. . .)
Unless the green room conversation exists on video tape, it will be considered heresay.
Rush/Cookie! GET THE TAPE!
I have thought all along that Wilson was the person behind his wife's problems.
Lord knows all his reasons for placing her and others in a predicament like what is happening.
Hmmm.... I find it interesting that MGen Vallely is only now making this statement since he has been a regular contributor to FoxNews. You'd think that he'd have been on air with this tidbit before now.
Perhaps Gen. Vallely testified before the Grand Jury to this effect? If so, he was bound to secrecy until the Jury closed down? I think that's how it works.
Why didn't he say something earlier? It's not like everyone hasn't been discussing this for 2 years?
