I hope Wells brought a large smoke generator and many, many mirrors; it looks to me as if nothing less can save Libby’s freedom (and indirectly the Veep’s credibility, such as it is). But I’ve been wrong about such things too many times before to venture a prediction. Still, I keep repeating to myself, “presumed innocent…” “presumed innocent…” but it doesn’t seem to help. Somebody in that White House outed Plame, and one or more people in that White House lied about it under oath; forgive me if I am unsympathetic.
The saddest thing for Tim was the revelation that in internal discussions, the Bushies considered his show a safe place to send their lying minions. Let me dry my tears for him… there; that didn’t take long.
