Maybe they will turn into your lucky pair of socks today ;-)
Hey, are you really colorblind?
I see you have the indictment clock up again. Is this a hint?
Can we expect more indictments, like tommorrow. Friday is always a good day to announce an indictment or two.
Bush authorized leak of Iraq intelligence estimate, indicted ex-Cheney aide says
RAW STORY
Published: Thursday April 6, 2006
A former White House aide under indictment for obstructing a leak probe, I. Lewis Libby, testified to a grand jury that he gave information from a closely-guarded "National Intelligence Estimate" on Iraq to a New York Times reporter in 2003 with the specific permission of President Bush, according to a new court filing from the special prosecutor in the case, THE NEW YORK SUN reports Thursday.
ADMINISTRATION
Libby Says Bush Authorized Leaks

Vice President Dick Cheney's former chief of staff has testified that President Bush authorized him to disclose the contents of a highly classified intelligence assessment to the media to defend the Bush administration's decision to go to war with Iraq, according to papers filed in federal court on Tuesday by Patrick J. Fitzgerald, the special prosecutor in the CIA leak case.
Fitz:
I don't care if you wear "rainbow" socks! :)
put those socks on e-bay..
I don't think anyone will notice Fitz if you have a different pair of socks. As long as your pants cover the socks and you don't tell anyone at your office!
Folks,
Yes I heard about the little soldier was given permission by the Gerbil to leak the CIA name.
Excerpts from Thinkprogress.org:
"Libby claims he first "rebuffed" Vice President Cheney's suggestion to release the information because it was confidential. But, according to the New York Sun, "Cheney specifically got permission for the release directly from Mr. Bush." The prosecution filing said, "Defendant testified that the vice president later advised him that the president had authorized defendant to disclose the relevant portions of the NIE [National Intelligence Estimate containing Plame's identity]."
This case surely is interesting. First, the little soldier says Chaney authorized him to leak the name and now it is Bush. But, then the NY Sun says that Cheney got permission from Bush. This is sounding like Albert and Costello, "who's on first" theme? The little soldier is playing the blame game again!
CNN, MSNBC just reported Libby said under sworn testimony Bush and Cheney told him to out Plame
Fitz Jodi is right your color blind. Try pinning each pair of socks together as you take them off pin them back, I remember thats what Michael Jordan did he's color blind too. If anyone is so vain that they have to look at your feet I must have so serious problems.
CNN, MSNBC just reported Libby said under sworn testimony Bush and Cheney told him to out Plame
Before his indictment, I. Lewis Libby testified to the grand jury investigating the CIA leak that Cheney told him to pass on information and that it was Bush who authorized the disclosure, the court papers say. According to the documents, the authorization led to the July 8, 2003, conversation between Libby and New York Times reporter Judith Miller.
There was no indication in the filing that either Bush or Cheney authorized Libby to disclose Valerie Plame's CIA identity.
But the disclosure in documents filed Wednesday means that the president and the vice president put Libby in play as a secret provider of information to reporters about prewar intelligence on Iraq.
Whoops, first part
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Vice President Dick Cheney's former top aide told prosecutors President Bush authorized the leak of sensitive intelligence information about Iraq, according to court papers filed by prosecutors in the CIA leak case.
Here is the the actual file documents from Smoking gun:

s-q, that would indicate treason by the president (& the WHIG).
That would be the end of the last act:
http://www.light-to-dark.com/the_third_act.html
It is time for patriotic republicans to move to impeach, or lose their seats.
Libby was under oath, now watch the media spin, spin spin.
People don't often accuse the president of treason, under oath of outing a CIA agent.
Read the 1982 law-he's done.
When events such as the Quakers reporting they have been infiltrated by govt. agents and Ted Kennedy gets put on the no fly list even some of the most far right of us are starting wonder about survelliance. Below is just one operation and there is no telling how vast Poindexters secret database really is now. Recall that Congress said no to him but hewent to "black ops" with it.
Changes ordered to Pentagon database
By LOLITA C. BALDOR
Apr 6, 2006
As many as 260 reports in a classified Defense Department database on suspicious people or activities were improperly collected or kept there, the Pentagon said Wednesday in a review that also found the system to be a valuable tool in terrorism investigations.
The review was ordered last December after reports that the database collected information on anti-war groups and U.S. citizens prompting members of Congress and others to raise questions about possible domestic spying.
Pentagon spokesman Bryan Whitman said there are about 13,000 entries in the database, and that less than 2 percent either were wrongly added or were not purged later when they were determined not to be real threats.
Pentagon officials wouldn't discuss details of the classified database, including what specifically the improper entries contained.
Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England, in a memo dated March 30 and released Wednesday, called the program productive and said it "has detected international terrorist interest in specific military bases and has led to and supported counterterrorism investigations."
England also noted, however, that the system should only be used to report information about "possible international terrorist activity." And he said that to insure the program is working properly, he ordered an annual review of the system, and set up a working group to examine how well Pentagon agencies are coordinating their collection and use of the data.
Known as TALON or the Threat and Local Observation Notice the system was developed by the Air Force in the aftermath of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks as a way to collect information about possible terrorist threats.
The TALON reports collected by a wide array of Defense Department agencies including law enforcement, intelligence, counterintelligence and security are then compiled in a large database and analyzed by an obscure Pentagon agency, the Counterintelligence Field Activity. CIFA is a three-year old outfit whose size and budget are classified as secret.
The review, said Whitman, "confirmed that the TALON reporting system is important and that it should be used to report information regarding possible international terrorist activity."
Whitman said some people using the database may have considered it a way to collect more general threat information, rather than data on "suspicious activity linked to possible international terrorists."
Whitman said Defense Department personnel who use the database also have gone through a refresher course on what should or should not be included. And, he said, there are new requirements that supervisors must review all the reports before they are submitted to the Counterintelligence Field Activity for entry into the database. Then CIFA must also review them before entering them in the database.
The database was first reported by NBC, which said it included nearly four dozen anti-war meetings or protests, including some that have taken place far from any military installation or recruitment center.
I certainly hope there are people in place (good honest people) to watch the evil ones that might like to create a diversion or destruction...narcissistic, controlling people will do anything to hang on to power and control.
Better check the news again, dr. DONE
Or are the MP's going in as we speak
Folks,
In other news from the Gerbil Administration Excerpts from the Washington Post:
Rumsfeld Challenges Rice on 'Tactical Errors' in Iraq
"Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said he did not know what Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice was talking about when she said last week that the United States had made thousands of "tactical errors" in handling the war in Iraq, a statement she later said was meant figuratively."
Here is Rummy's answer about Condi:
"Hennen asked Rumsfeld: "Do you agree with that? Have we made thousands of tactical errors? And does that concern you?"
Rumsfeld replied: "I don't know what she was talking about, to be perfectly honest."
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/04/05/AR2006040502269_pf.html
And there you go folks! Both are dumb like doorknobs!
Rummy is senile, take him away...
More about what Libby said:
But the documents indicate Bush and Cheney set up Libby as a secret source to reporters about prewar intelligence on Iraq.
The papers from Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald say Libby had the conversation in which the C-I-A agent's name was leaked after Cheney told him Bush gave the go-ahead "to disclose certain information" from an intelligence report.
CNN reports Bush oked leak through Cheney, retracts.
No, Anon!
Rummy need to be in nursing home. The man is not well... That was nice of him as Defense Secretary to challenge the Secretary of State. And we thought that they are both of them are on the side? What is that telling you???
When Miller's intuition kicked in and she was pondering her scoop...
I see it was not fast enough so then began leak after leak with all involved..
with much CYA"in and changing laws along the way
in other words
above the law
cause we
make the law
fit
what we need....
Oh ..when and if scooter uses the we in his talk
I am sure POTUS and VP are wondering if he has a mouse in his pocket :)
Presently, America doesn't have a patriot running the show. Rather, we have a president in name only who, for defending false precepts to go to war, would hurt his country by compromising national security.
The timeline for the leak is particularly interesting, motive-wise.
A unified country is what we need now. Republicans either act to give the House and Senate the teeth to impeach, or lose their seat-at the very least.
In the alternative, Bush might be forced to resign, like the Tricky One.
It's not exactly cunnilingus, is it?
Stephen,
With this new news from the little soldier, it doesn't look for the Gerbil. With all the bad news, bad press, bad polls, and the body counts from the soldiers and Iraq citizens in Iraq, and the conditions of Iraq, I just think this President will last much longer in the WH. I just don't think people can take any more hardache from this Administration.
In order news, good news for Ohio!
Workers accused of fudging ’04 recount
Prosecutor says Cuyahoga skirted rules
"After the 2004 presidential election, Cuyahoga County election workers secretly skirted rules designed to make sure all votes were counted correctly, a special prosecutor charges.
While there is no evidence of vote fraud, the prosecutor said their efforts were aimed at avoiding an expensive - and very public - hand recount of all votes cast. Three top county elections officials have been indicted, and Erie County Prosecutor Kevin Baxter says more indictments are possible. "

And Prosecutor Baxter rocks!
Were I given special prosecutor status, my first act would be to obtain a court-approved wire tap of the White House. Imagine the treasure trove of evidence so gathered.
I would also inform the Secret Service. Eventually it could come to pass that these presidential protectors are loyal patriots after all and not tools used to protect the mob.

He may leave the WH with a smile in '09 but he sure didn't just now!
Never seen him here so ticked off looking. This is not good news for him politically.
SPB, a secure and honest vote should be supported by each and every American citizen.
Kenny Blackwell should be worried. The squeeze can be just as fruitful in Ohio as it has been in D.C.
Nice work, prosecutors.
Gma...Yes I had just seen the quick remarks he made about immigration before he left on the copter.
When even FOX had the direct link about the CIA leak pointing to him wrong that's got to be more than irritating.
Oh, yes Blackwell is afraid. And with his lame excuse about being a shareholder for Diebold Inc. and these new idictments of 3 people involved in the voting rigging, this certainly puts a squeeze on Blackwell. I am glad that justice is being served in Ohio, the Ohioians have suffered alot.
From a Huffpost blogger:
"If there's a leak out of my administration, I want to know who it is," Bush told reporters at an impromptu news conference during a fund-raising stop in Chicago, Illinois. "If the person has violated law, that person will be taken care of." - G. W. Bush
"I want to know the truth," the president continued. "Leaks of classified information are bad things."
How, oh how will the press secretary spin this one? Expect the "not guilty until proven" spin. So Nixonesque.

Outing Plame was treason.

Lord, Al Rogers is a fool. He says lets impeach the president on one end and on the other end says, bush did not authorize the CIA leaks so nobody better impeach him.
This guy's logic is circular and NEVER makes any sense!!!!
And now he is asking everyone why they don't care about election fraud???
I saw FOUR emails from "Dr. Evil" today under his palmbeach account, and he is acting like everyone needs to not concern themselves with fraud.
HE IS A HOAXER, HES IN IT FOR THE MONEY!
The people at the top broke the law including Bush, thats what matters. Cheney will be indicted at the end of the Grand Jury review and that will come as some "shock" then it will all be over, and Bush will be in the hotseat again.

Biloxi,
The little soldier doesn't have a leg to stand on. He will drag Cheney down with him.
Fitz,
You need to hire a personal valet to keep your socks and suits in order with the kind of life that you lead.

Anon at 2:55 pm,
And that is exactly what the little soldier is doing: dragging Cheney down. And you notice that we haven’t heard from Rambo Cheney? And where is Cheney doing his target practice lately? The little "baby wipes" soldier is riding a dead horse. No leg to stand on, no case and no height on him!
just back on line.
so all a ruse.
when Bush talking to the live cameras about firing the leakers, well then... its all just piffle.
WHAT AN ASS
