We have a real interesting dynamic opening up here in response to the indictments handed down by Fitzgerald.
We have an anti-Starr prosecutor, a guy who is actually interested in getting to the bottom of this leak issue. A president who is reminding people he still has a SCOTUS position to fill (don't worry base, that'll distract them), a vice president who knows he was in on this and values his aide rather then the transparency of the federal government, the conservative side pretty much taking the "it's just perjury" line of defense as well as "she wasn't really covert." Also, a democratic party that is sure to overeach.
We spent the majority of 1998 talking about "is." We are going to be spending the rest of 2005 talking about Cheney and his attempt to leak us into a premptive war.
