What's the latest on the Valerie Plame investigation?

[Virginian]

And Martha is out of prison already, has Kenny boy Lay seen the inside of a courtroom yet?

2. Priorities, Priorities, Priorities, Like Steroids in Baseball. DUH!!!

3. Coverup, frame-up, fuggedaboutit.

Take your pick. (It's like Clue: "The Toady in the AG's office with a coverup.")

That goes for all the other "investigations" too. The new AG knows his stuff... and which side his bread is buttered on.

4. Yep. My guess: inevstigation purposefully tanked along with the Anrthrax

invetsigation (who, curiously, only targeted Demoracts, the "Liberal" Media, and the tabloid reporters who published the story and photos of Bush's daughters).

But of course, with no apparent motive or pattern to the attacks, how can investigators find leads?

:puke: </sarcasm off> :puke:

Where the Imperial Family is concerned, Amerika Law Enforcement has already descended to the effectiveness of the Nazis in investigating PARTY crimes.

Can the rest of the Law Enforcement Edifice be far behind? After all, it was only 40 years ago that the KKK was beating and murdering African-Americans and Liberals with gleeful abandon, knowing that they would NEVER be tried and convicted, even if some Yankee Liberal Queer did decide to investigate them.

Although there is PROGRESS. In the New Totalitarianism in Amerika, ANYONE who is an Enemy of the State, regardless of race, creed, or color, can be an "Uppity Negro"

6. In my opinion,

the worst case is the leak about cracking that Iranian code. (That is, provided the whole story wasn't a fabrication -- But how will we ever know?)

This was (and is) very highly protected material with very limited distribution -- and I had heard that it was known who leaked the information -- and in what circumstances. (And, in any event, it is the tip of the iceberg.)

But it has fallen completely off of the radar.

American patriotism is dead. Our Lady Liberty has been murdered. -- And our internationalist corporatist overlords are violating her fallen body.

But this is now our standard fare, so what of it?

5. I don't know about Plame, but Kenny Boy's time is nearing.

Someone asked about his case when they were doing all the Martha coverage last week, and why he seems to have faded into the sunset along with all his friends and all the other criminal CEO's. The response was that Martha's case was pretty straight foreward. She lied to Congress & to a GJ, she admitted it...case closed. The cases against all the others are far more difficult, require much more research and investigation to prove. I believe that! These people were purposely setting up shelters and layers to hide their dirty work, and it's taking a lot of time to wade through it all.

I think they said you can expect to see Kenny Boy sometime in the late Spring or early Summer. What they did has to be preseneted to a jury so the average person can understand, and that's no easy task.

7. Hersh believes Fitzgerald is on to something bigger.

See my review of Hersh's recent appearance here:

He mentioned the investigation (and actually had praise for Novak)
