Update [2006-4-8 11:57:6 by howieinseattle]: Editor & Publisher covers the print media on this issue and concludes, “Uproar Grows Over Bush Role in Libby Leakage.”
Peter Daou comments:
“Not unexpectedly, there’s massive blog coverage of this scandal. The question over the next several days is whether or not we’ll get a functioning triangle on the left, a coming together of the netroots, the Democratic establishment and the press to bring this story to a head. If so, Bush and his administration will sustain major political damage; if not, this will follow a long string of similar outrages into the memory hole. My head tells me that the elements are in place for the former, my gut tells me that despite an initial flurry, we’re headed for the latter. Time will tell.”
I rarely link to the orange place, but Georgia10 has an excellent “Dream Diary” up…a fable, as it were, about the gloves really coming off.

I have not visited the Orange Place in months.
Robert Parry, here and TalkLeft here are asking the same question: Did Bush Lie to Fitzgerald on June 24, 2004?
TalkLeft’s review of Jason Leopold’s article on missing emails, recently discovered – these could equate to the missing 18 minutes on that famous tape in Nixon’s Watergate.
Wow. Where’s Howard Baker? The country needs him.
Someone give me an effing gun so I can shoot Tweety! GD he infuriates me. He just said AGAIN that Valerie Wilson sent her husband Joe on a junket and that is why the WH leaked. Eff this asshole. Will they ever tell the flipping truth. Sorry gang. I just had to get that off my chest. Every GD time we have the Cabal of Liars/Fascists in the WH under the gun, the RWMSM spins the crap out of it and outright lies for them. Greeeeeeeeeeeeeuuuuueeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrr!
We need to learn to expect this reaction and be proactive with our “preemptive thinking” about our response.
Spot on Howie!
Howie, what do you make of the WH ‘refusing to refute the allegations laid out in Libby’s GJ testimony.? – their hiding behind the “it’s an ongoing court proceeding kinda comment.”
I suspect they’re giving cover to Libby, shielding him from being charged for outing Plame and or other classified information.
Congress is in recess so they’ve made away like bandits, AGAIN.
