3. To be honest with ya, there's not much tonight.
I've been sidetracked by the 4000 yr old noodle dish, and the Dutch wanting to outlaw burkas.

I think it's time to turn in. Good night! :hi:

4. I think this is the lull before the storm.
We'll see something Friday when Rover goes back to the grand jury yet again. Then, maybe next week Wednesday or more likely Friday the other shoe may drop. Or, things could quiet down for a bit. Fitz ain't tellin' nothin'. The next big move could be Fitz extending the investigation.

5. I'm obsessed with it too. Because this could be the big one--
this could be how we finally get rid of them, since we now know we can't vote them out (thanks to Diebold and other computer-vote fixing.)

Everyone who wants the Bush/Cheney travesty GONE should be thinking of nothing else but Plamegate!

Have you seen all these sites? Some of them cover Plame exclusively.

"Don't forget check in with the other PlameGate addicted bloggers today who will surely weigh in on this, my favorites being: Arianna, Jane Hamsher, Tom Maguire, Empty Wheel, David Corn, and Digby, to name a few."--Talkleft.com

9. Thanks for this one. I love these two paragraphs.
The point that Cohen and the other White House hacks have missed is that protecting the identities of intelligence officers, whether they are working under official or non-official cover, is part of national defense. To compromise these identities is to commit an act of treason.

Richard Cohen is dead wrong to argue that the best thing Patrick Fitzgerald can do is leave town. To the contrary, the best thing Patrick Fitzgerald can do is a send a clear message to politicians in both parties that when it comes to political hardball intelligence assets must be kept out of the game. At the end of the day our nation's security is no game, it is a matter of life and death.

10. I had a dream last night that Fitzgerald
Edited on Fri Oct-14-05 12:09 AM by blue agave
announced a new conference for this Friday afternoon.

I think this has something to do with the articel I read recently about the gj convening only on Wednesdays and Fridays. Since Rover is scheduled for round four on Friday AMS, this Friday PM would be the earliest possible announcement date. It is probably just high anxiety, but that was the vision.
