Fedora over at Free Republic has posted an investigative tour de force regarding Valerie Plame. I just want to add some of my thoughts and insights to some of his commentary and guesses. 1.. What did Valerie Wilson aka Valerie Plame do at CIA? …Isikoff and Corn state that following a maternity leave, Valerie Wilson […]

I am stunned, but it seems Fitzgerald was so successful in his case the judge threw one portion of one of the indictments against Libby (saw it first, where else, at Just One Minute). The Libby defense won a victory of sorts when Judge Reggie B. Walton agreed to exclude part of one of the […]

The venerable Mark [what was I thinking?] Tom Maguire lays out the context of one of the first defense witnesses we will see in the Libby Trial – and it is an enlightening description: Ms. Mitchell’s time is coming – here is lots of material and transcripts of her past efforts on this subject. And […]

Major Updates Below – Russert uses Libby defence tactic, indictment story was just not important enough to jog memory! Tim Russert is getting hammered today (and rightfully so). I is being asked direct questions and he responding with lame dodges. Sadly he thinks he is being quite the genius. But what is coming out clear […]

The most interesting thing to come out of Russert’s testimony today was when he was hammered at the end of the day regarding his claims of journalistic privilege when fighting Fitzgerald’s subpoenas. The reality of the fact was he had testified under oath to FBI agents already, and failed to mention this. But so did […]

There may yet be a criminal act at the center of the Plame Game – but not from Libby or Rove but from the Wilson-Plame duo. There has been much discussion on the blogs (this one for sure) about the fact the 2002 trip to Niger by Joe Wilson on behest of his wife was […]

Light posting as I am still nursing some sort of cold or something, but the headlines today in the Libby trial is that the FBI agent who testified last week had to totally reverse her testimony under oath. Take it away Clarice: The Libby trial continues today with FBI agent Bond acknowledging that her notes […]

[Note: Updates at the end. Folks, the jem is at the bottom after the fold. To summarize, Wilson went to Niger to debunk his own earlier report from 1999]. Now we have Judith Miller, and the case for the prosecution starts to fall apart more. Key date to hold in your mind while going through […]

Sorry for the light posting – lots of work. Some comments on Ari Fliescher before we leave him and move onto the other witnesses. As I said before Ari is the perfect foil to Libby. He felt he had done something wrong, and resisted testifying, got a lawyer, etc. He acted guilty, even though in […]

Fitz is having an abysmal time trying to paint a picture of the Office of VP (OVP) and WH (President) on some mission of retribution against Wilson through Plame. Recall, these witnesses on now are the PROSECUTION’s witnesses. So when they get up and say ‘we worked on this matter heavily and had strategies laid […]
