Daily Kos: Something wicked this way comes [View All]

[SittingBull]

Let's begin with Libby's Ode to the Aspens.

Libby wants Miller to come back to life; to cover other stories for greater glories. And what are those stories?


You went to jail in the summer. It is fall now. You will have stories to cover -- Iraqi elections and suicide bombers, biological threats and the Iranian nuclear program.

This jumped out at me the first time I read Scooter's Ode to fearless reporting and selfless sacrifice.

Iraqi elections and suicide bombers go hand in hand. They are past, present and future. These stories are real and ongoing.

But how about biological threats and the Iranian nuclear program? They're linked in the same way grammatically, as elections and jihadists, but really what is he talking about? What biological threats? It's no secret Libby and his ilk want to use force, if necessary, to halt Iran's nuclear program for fear, real or imagined, of atomic weaponry. But he speaks with certainty about biological threats in the same literary breath as the Iranian nuclear program. Is he talking warfare, terrorism, bird flu?
