Although the scope can widen, the investiagtion follows a linear path. The prosecutor would have to simply abandon his sworn duty to begin investigating the war and the BS intelligence that led up to it.

I'm all for an investigation into that, but it has to be legit. One man becoming a renegade isn't going to do anything. Well, maybe it will bring some attention to the issue, but it won't bring anyone to justice.

The bottom line on the Plame issue is that we are all way to excited, and the rest of the country is way to apathetic. And the only thing on the news is Hurricane coverage. Shit, something like eighty thousand people are dead and five times as many are newly homeless in pakistan, but there's no talk about that. And Most of the White House is facing inditement, but most of the country is talking about Desperate Housewives( which isn't half bad).

No matter what happens here, absent the President getting head from a portly subordinate, no one will care, and it will change nothing.

Not that things won't change, this just won't be the reason why. I think if Dems can get their act together and deliver a cohesive message of unity and an actionable plan, the country is theirs for the taking.
