Tom Maguire has links to some response filings. I found the Miller/Bennet response to Team Libby’s filing against motions to quash weak. Which means Walton will probably side with Miller. But here it goes anyway. First off, Bennett naively admits the amount of information Miller is withholding is small, so there will never be any […]

The Raging RINOs have been sighted at the Environmental Republican and they are tearing up the place as usual.  Go check out what all the fuss is about!

In this previous post I noted that Judge Walton, who is overseeing the Libby case, denied Team Libby marginal information about Joe Wilson’s 2002 Niger trip in order to impeach his testimony and his comments at the time (plenty of sources for that), but did give Team Libby a big win on getting government information […]

Folks, this post began as a look back on Wilson’s antics in 2003 based on his comments at the EPIC conference in June and a UVA speech in October 2003. It turned quickly into wild speculation about the Niger Forgeries and a plausible CIA role. As I was reviewing this material a year later with […]

While the dems think they will win the 2006 election cycle, I think the truth is both parties will be abondened as people move to an un-aligned position in the center. The mood in the country is one of total disgust with DC and politics. The country is in great shape, is taking on Al […]

New day, same Hoekstra. Many fine people who I admire have emailed and commented to me that some people just feel unconfortable about too many military leaders. Well, I don’t find that argument persuasive. To say that still implies there is something negative about people in the Military. The round of discussion came when I […]

The Watcher’s Council has selected their top posts for the week, and there are some great posts in this round. In the council category the winner is The Last Boat Out of Liverpool by Gates of Vienna, with second place going to You’re-being-mean-to-me Liberalism by New World Man. In the non-council category the winner is […]

I think Marc Grossman is panicking. In the latest Team Libby filing (thanks to Tom Maguire) Marc Grossman is singled out as administration snitch and Wilson mouth piece: Marc Grossman will also be a key government witness. … Previously we have argued that Mr. Grossman may have a motive to misrepresent facts. … It is […]

People sometimes question my bona fides as an ex-Democrat, conservative independent.  Of course if they noticed my positions on Miers and Immigration they would see a non-hardline (I am not moderate – I am very passionate) position.  But then some Republican leader opens their mouth and reminds me why neither party is saintly or worthy […]

Folks, when you read all the whining about DNI taking over the CIA’s central role and coordinating all the intelligence resources remember one thing. This was not a power grab, this was the recommendation of the 9-11 commission. This is not Bush’s plan to destroy the CIA, this was the plan of the 9-11 Commission […]
