    Murray Waas

    was the reporter I was waiting for on this one. He usually gets it right. Whether we ever see a Rove indictment is getting blurred by whether we will ever see Cheney on the witness stand. Both would be ideal.

    Jason Leopold, to be so convincing to his editors, must have been the victim of a practical joke, perhaps played by someone who doesn't like to see bloggers get scoops on the regular media. If he had simply made all this up, no one else at TO would have listened to him. So, it makes sense that, Leopold's reputation for veracity having already been in some trouble, somebody just delivered the final blow. Will Madsen be next?

    And, just for perspective, why doesn't Matt Drudge take more flak when he so obviously makes stuff up out of thin air?-- (I won't give him "whole cloth").
