CIA Refers WaPo CIA-Prison Report To Justice Department, May Be First Step In Requesting Full Criminal Investigationposted by Ace at 08:12 PM

Hey Ace. The part about the "same referral procedure" - was the plame one pre- Goss? Is he now using the same hammer to beat up the CIA traitor plame leakers? Is that your take on this? (Always enjoy reading your stuff...) Posted by: Philip on November 8, 2005 08:31 PM
Or is this a move to stop high profile Congressional hearings? Look we know there are a lot of leakers on both sides of the aisle. Its time to put their balls in vices and squeeze. Its pathetic that National Security has become a matter of partisan politics. Someone needs to be made a serious example of. Posted by: Iblis on November 8, 2005 09:15 PM
With all the CYA going on at the CIA, and the fact that the prison story is at the very least not helpful to the WH, and the Dems & NYT being ever so silent upon the "leak", my guess is that the chance of anyone paying for this treason in any way, shape or form is about the same as the NYT running a front-page article on how good the war is going on the front page of tomorrow's early edition. It just ain't gonna happen. If this had happened on Billy Bub's watch (which it couldn't - he didn't have the time to take his gonads away from the skirt of the day to use them to help his country) the MSM would be screaming for the Repub's hair, scalp and all. All that matters is who is damaged by the leak. Leak = Dem hurt, bad, hunt them down and kill them. Leak = Repub. hurt, good, stop the presses and praise be to whatever the god of the day is. Thank God for the blogosphere. Posted by: Carlos on November 8, 2005 09:25 PM
I don't want high-profile hearings. I want closed door, murderous rage hearings that result in sealed indictments for reporters and staffers (of either party) who go to jail for a long time and are never heard from again, either in the pages of the New York Times or from the lips of professional bloviators like Chris Matthews. Secret is secret*. Throw the fucking book at these guys. Cheers, *I will make an exception when it's NOT secret, as in "the intelligence budget of the United States," or "Valerie Plame, Soccer Mom Ninja" Posted by: Dave at Garfield Ridge on November 8, 2005 09:49 PM
Cutto the chase: Will we get to see some reporters go to the slammer and which ones? Why reporters? Why not those who gave the story to the reporters? If you want a Judith Miller parallel, it takes a powerful case to lock up a journalist. As I mentioned in the other thread, I thought this story was out there months ago, when Amnesty International used the word GULAGs. So I don't see much of a case here, yet. Secret prison systems... can you imagine any other democratic country where its citizens would get up in arms NOT at the fact that it was done secretly in their name, but that someone REVEALED it??? I can't. Posted by: tubino on November 8, 2005 09:56 PM
Back in the day some of these leakers would have wound up in a 'mental hospital', locked up for their own safety, dontchya know. Good times, good times. Posted by: BrewFan on November 8, 2005 09:59 PM
Why reporters? Traitors are traitors no matter where you find them. During WWII, this sort of thing would have been unthinkable. Posted by: Tony on November 8, 2005 10:20 PM
There was no leak. There was no covert agent. Valerie Plame worked for the CIA. Fine. Got any idea how many folks drive into and out of Langley, every f'n day? They are NOT covert agents! Oh, yes.
Posted by: LarryLion on November 8, 2005 10:47 PM
LarryLion = another one who managed to see the evidence that Fitzgerald used to get the indictment. Libby should have learned the phrase made popular by the Clintonistas: "I don't recall." You forgot that Reagan said that a record number of times regarding Iran-contra? Let me guess: You don't recall. Posted by: tubino on November 8, 2005 10:51 PM

Elric the Blade says he's no longer sure that Trump will have the right to appeal in the NY fraud case:
Yesterday, I thought that Trump had an appeal as of right on the fraud liability, based upon news reports that cited the second opinion as declining to find in favor of liability. That would give Trump at least 2 dissenting judges for an appeal as of right. But now, after seeing the actual decisions, I'm not so sure. Sorry, guys. I've never seen or heard of what the second opinion did. They dissented, but ... decided not to dissent? I'm not sure what the effect is in terms of whether Trump has a right to appeal. I doubt anyone does. I think even if Trump doesn't have a right of appeal, the Court of Appeals (NY's highest court) will take the case. But ... it's a liberal court so who knows how they'll rule. I don't think they'll take the appeal. Judges are lazy and cowardly and will duck any hot potato case they can. These judges are also liberal hacks, and do not want to deliver Trump a full victory.

"As the discussion continued, Fox News host Charlie Hurt asked Trump directly to confirm there will be no U.S. troops involved in this potential security umbrella for Ukraine. "Well, you have my assurance, and I'm president," Trump replied."

Lost Seventies Mystery Click: The Darkest Song Ever Recorded?
I think Professor of Rock (on YouTube) claimed this song was so upsetting that people used to pull over to the side of the road when it came on the radio. It's about a fatal plane crash, but obviously it suggests a fatal car crash too, which could wig out a driver. It's like one of those nasty 70s anti-war body horror movies. Not for the squeamish. I'm not even going to post the lyrics because they're upsetting too.
