Fitzmas Tomorrow?
Everyone is getting antsy. First, Redstateproject prints a complete fantasy prediction, including such impossibilities as Joe Wilson and Valerie Plame being indicted. Then, Drudge is pissing himself claiming that tomorrow's New York Times will report that Karl Rove won't be indicted.
Maybe, maybe not. But if Rove isn't and Libby is, seems to me that maybe Karl finally flipped after thirty years of dirty tricks and evil. Maybe, caught up in internicine warfare in the West Wing, he decided to finger Dick Cheney.
Perhaps my conjecture is as much a fantasy as Redstateproject's -- but I can dream, can't I? Odds that Rove would sell out anyone in this Administration: less than .000000001%. Or, correction -- odds that he'd sell out anyone important? Less than the above. But taking out Libby woudln't ruin any of his future chances. Might get ol' Dick pissed off at him, but I don't think anyone in or out of the Republican Party has any serious notion at all that Cheney is Presidential material. At least, not electable material.
Anyway, to me, this is much more exciting than the World Series. (Uh -- that just ended or something, didn't it?) And it's much more important. What do we get for Fitzmas? A few piffly indictments of minor players, that and a list of unindicted co-conspirators? Or something a whole lot better? And y'all know what I mean by that...
Tick, tick, tick, tick...
