Don:

Don't disagree. There was plenty of outrage in conservative circles, including OTB, when the story first broke.

Now, though, there is serious question as to whether she was actually "outed" or even an "operative." Most indications point to her being a DC desk jockey after marrying Wilson and her affiliation being rather well known. We shall see, I guess.

Put Rice in charge, have her assume the Presidency; and she is paying Bush off for those mansion years, the original WMD leak is solved, and; like the ICA running DOJ and the Pentagon, it is poetic

I can only imagine what the Right would have said had high-ranking officials from the Clinton administration outed a CIA operative.

Why Are We Investigating Leaks?

Outside the Beltway correctly discounts the rumor of a Cheney resignation.

"Why are we prosecuting press leaks?

Put it another way: why is Aldrich Ames in prison?

Wow, the Kremlin was a press organization? Stunning. Of course, that would go a long way to explaining the New York Times editorial board!

Moonbat fantasies

They're going off the deep-end w/this Valerie Plame business. 1st Rove is going down...then Libby...now they saying Cheney will resign. Sometimes I just sit and wonder what it must be like to live in such alternate reality. Do the laws...

This thing has dragged on for years now and it seems that all we have is two senior White House advisors telling reporters that Joe Wilson got the job because his wife, a CIA officer, suggested he be hired.

Hey, JJ, you're right, that makes no sense at all.

So obviously Fitzgerald, and the 3 judges of the D.C. Circuit who refused Miller's appeal, are all clueless, since they all seem to think that the underlying offense is a serious crime.

Or possibly your concept of the case is deficient? Just wanted to raise that possibility.

The silly season used to last a few weeks while Congress was in recess. Now it's 24/7/365.

Are the media to blame? Is Congress?

...yes.

Rice as VP would have satisfied me in the 2004 election. Now? Ambivalent. Yeh, she's a "soft" pro-choice, which in the current state of pro-choice synonymity with pro-abortion isn't something I like. But it is a "soft" pro-choice that isn't consonant with the pro-abortion crowd in general. In point of fact, I recognize that all women have that choice, I'd just rather than those who choose so face some sort of homicide charges... (Slipping off to oil my rope and pound a couple more pegs in my gallows. That's humor, folks. gallows humor, true, but humor nonetheless.)

Any pro-choice candidate will not bring joy to me, regardless of how much I agree with their other views-Condi included. (sometimes one-issue IS what matters.(A man that falls overboard needs a life jacket, not a tax-cut!)

Pro-choice is a diabolical (Satanic) word-combine that represents one of the most sugar-coated evils approved by civilization. 40 million is the score so-far. Like addicts, we will do anything to continue and defend our moral illness! Placing it low on our list is inexcusable!

God save us from ourselves!
