He's so relieved, I hear he's scheduled an afternoon session with Jeff Gannon.
Does no one but I see that the wheels are coming off this Administration? Now, the Thug In Chief has addressed the public by saying, "Today, I accepted the resignation of Scooter Libby." But then he went back to acting like it's just another day in the White House.
Business as usual. Except that now the cloud that's been hanging over the White House has thickened. There is a storm gathering. Karl Rove remains unindicted but still in serious legal jeopardy. With the sycophant Harriet Miers withdrawing her name from consideration to the Supreme Court, and a serious indictment today, it's looking like the Bush team is knocked back on its heels. Everyone focuses on "what's next?" which is understandable. But anyone can see that this is just the beginning, spin it as you like. The worst (for the White House) is yet to come. People who are breathing a sigh of relief that it was only one person should not rest easy. Patrick Fitzgerald has yet to prove that VP Cheney wasn't involved, or that Karl Rove wasn't involved. But that's just a matter of time, and Mr. Fitzgerald seems to have plenty of it. I personally would've liked to see Rove indicted also, but at least we got one of the bad guys.
Now, for the rest....
Fitzgerald didn't answer a lot of questions, but he isn't in any position where can.
I thought he did a great job at the press conference explaining what he's doing and why what Scooter Libby did was wrong.
