    Tangential Issue

    Glenn, I think you and DC are right to sense some hope. One issue that I don't understand -- and it is tangential, but nevertheless still part of the whole issue of the neocons and their role in what has happened in this country -- is the upcoming AIPAC/spy case.

    I'd be very curious about your lawyerly view of this case. On the one hand, there is the concern by some, newly voiced, that the case is a set-up by Gonzales, et al, to expand executive power, viz: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2007/4/23/85210/0963

    On the other, some are convinced that the neo-cons in government and the media are trying to get these guys off: http://www.antiwar.com/orig/gsmith.php?articleid=10853.

    This is particularly interesting since Ledeen and Rosen were said to be in Italy meeting on the Niger stuff: http://justworldnews.org/archives/001545.html

    Any thoughts?
