Did I Say That..?


For the first time since the investigation into the leak of a covert CIA operative began more than three years ago, Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald has suggested that Vice President Dick Cheney was behind the effort to unmask the officer, the wife of a vocal critic of the administration's Iraq policy.

During closing arguments Tuesday in the obstruction of justice and perjury trial of former vice presidential staffer, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, Fitzgerald told jurors that "there is a cloud over the vice president. ... a cloud over the White House over what happened," according to a copy of the transcript of Fitzgerald's statements.

"We didn't put that cloud there," Fitzgerald said. "That cloud's there because the defendant obstructed justice. That cloud is something you just can't pretend isn't there."

Moreover, Fitzgerald told jurors that Libby, Cheney's former chief of staff, discussed aspects of the investigation with the vice president only when he was told by investigators not to talk about the probe, according to the transcript. Libby is "not supposed to be talking to other people," Fitzgerald said. But "the only person [Libby] told is the vice president. Think about that."

The suggestion by Fitzgerald that Cheney was complicit in the unmasking of Valerie Plame Wilson's undercover CIA status led to immediate speculation by pundits that the special prosecutor is widening his probe and may have Cheney in his crosshairs. <

All could think of was Erkel saying
" Did I say that?" We know what you've known all along Cheney set back on his big butt and orders these suck up to leak Plames name to stop Mr. Wilson from speaking the truth. What really is surprising is that all these so called Pulitzer Journalist , media and reporters kept their mouths shout. I really don't think all of them are that dumb at lease I hope not. If they are that dumb all we have is the bloggers for truthful information. I advertizers are wasting their money with the media. How's Randall holding up under the pressure. I read he gave a statement about baby Fitz. The sharks are out in full force. I don't think the jurors will take that long as their was no defense to consider only Wells crying for Libby. I do watch CSI and the finger print was sweet to bad we didn't get some DNA or hair samples.
When I meet Fitz I'm going to borrow my son's razor phone thing it takes pictures on it. I'll sell the picture of me and Fitz on Ebay. I'll keep the picture of me and Randall for myself.

Fitz,

Buy your team a nice bottle of wine to celebrate the victory and sweet justice. And don't use the coupon from Safeway to buy the two bottles of wine for 3 bucks! Leave the coupon at home. And don't be el cheapo to your team! Do the right thing. Buy the best.

Thanks for video! :D

For Jackie only:

On my blog is the emailletter from Randall sent (yes, Jackie, your Randall) telling the media and reporters that Fitz won't be given interviews. Randall's email letter was forwarded to me from Jason. So, I posted the email letter on my blog but I deleted parts of the email addresses of Jason and Randall and Randall's phone number as of respect of privacy and this important trial.

If the jury comes back guilty, and how could they not---the MSM best not spin this, make Team America look bad, or have Scooter and Depends Team look like they were robbed. FDL, JBs and others need to rally against the MSM. They need called on their lack of fair coverage, if any on this trial that affects all Americans.

It's almost like they pay these idiots to perform collective fellatio to keep the MSM machine working to make sure the public at large from looking at the real issues at hand that determine the quality of the rest of their lives.

Makes me angry.

Justice bloggers, keep the truth going and in their faces.

Fitz: Thank you for who you are. I dispare sometimes at the lack of access to accountability the American People can force on the political scene. Except for you! Thank you. Go for the big kahunia! Get those bastards!
