Gathering the Facts

Here's the transcript from Fitzgerald's press conference. As a friend of mine noted, he's a lot nicer when not revealing information than Scott McClellan.

Billmon is a little disappointed that they didn't indict on the Espionage Act or the IIPA, but I'm holding out hope that Scooter is more bait on the hook, and that there are bigger fish to fry...

And, as YRHT noted, Shrubusto gave into his inner frat boy and went on a road trip--he extensively cited a letter of dubious origin that the gang in DC attributed to Al Qaeda's number two...hmmmm...

I wonder if the same folks vouching for the letter are now hoping they won't follow Libby to the docket.

Otherwise, Shrub's speech appears to be the same tired, warmed over rhetoric...and will have the same effect--no sale. Because it was all based on big, fat lies.
