Andrea Mitchell just on MSNBC saying it's "not as big a case as we

[Gloria]

thought" since he (Fitz) said he's trying to wrap up as quickly as possible....

JEEBUS

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

1. did she listen to what Fitzgerald said?

Obstruction, lying, etc, are very serious crimes, and people in high office should not be immune from prosecution. Finding out the truth is vital.

[movonne]

11. Or the people giving the news!

[rodeodance]

24. only with her bad ear.

[nadinbrzezinski]

2. Andrew, andrea

that is not what he said....

Lying again?

[lebkuchen]

3. Mitchell lost the plot a long time ago

nf

[Connie_Corleone]

4. What's wrong with these idiots??!!

Don't they listen?? Most of the investigation is finished. That's why he hopes it will be wrapped up soon.

I still think there will be more indictments against at least one other person...Official A.

[spooky3]

21. I think so too. According to the indictment Off. A is the

one who told Novak. I think Fitzgerald is doing everything he can to overcome the barriers imposed by the perjury & obstruction to get the goods on Official A.

[WiseButAngrySara]

25. Who is Offical A? Cheney or Rove? Maybe #1 A hole * himself? ...n/t

[spooky3]

27. That's what we must wait to find out.

[mmonk]

30. You got what I got

Libby's lies were an impediment to charging A with a crime. If Libby wants to continue to lie to protect A, Libby goes to jail for 35 years. Did I read it wrong?

[Coexist]

5. Andrea is pathetic

she is trying to place a silver lining on this for the conservatives that she loves.

[mtnester]

6. Then Gergen pretty much discredits her comments in one breath...

and then there is Pat "nobody has been charged with the leaking crime" Buchanan

[kurth]

15. Al Capone was never charged with mob murders

But they took him out of circulation pretty good!

[rodeodance]

26. yes, Gergen did good.

[Mr_Spock]

7. RW Media WHORE

'nuff said.

[kurth]

16. Wonder if she'll stick around when Greenspan is in diapers..

[Mr_Spock]

36. She like spinning the bullSHIT - she's used to it.

Maybe she's use his diaper as a scarf :rofl:

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

8. One face lift too many will do that to you. I know it's shallow as hell.

Sue me.

[OldLeftieLawyer]

10. I'll defend you gratis n/t

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

18. Gracias!

:thumbsup:

[OldLeftieLawyer]

9. Why are these assholes on TV?

Buchanan needs to be embalmed again. He's leaking.

Andrea Mitchell needs to have her tongue Botoxed again. She can still talk.

And Tucker Carlson just needs to be bricked into a basement wall.

[kerry-is-my-prez]

12. Gergen: "He's squeezing Scooter for more info - that's how he operates"

He goes to the top that way....

[Hubert Flottz]

34. He is right too, I think.

When the trial starts the Doo-Doo will deepen! If information comes to light that would lead to more charges against other perps, even during the trial phase, he can proceed against them IMO. He said the investigation was ongoing too. He mentioned Cheney by name in the indictment and Karl isn't in the clear either. The pubbies ain't out of the woods yet by a long shot.

I think Fitz's dog will hunt in the turning aspen patch and piss all over the entangled roots at the very least. I think that frog will still hop too!

[ken_g]

13. A. Mitchel, what a simple minded idiot. How did she get this far

in journalism anyway?

[DURHAM D]

19. Her script for this moment was written in the WH

10 days to two weeks ago. Same for Tweety, Pat B., Timmy, Howard, Nora etc. If they had 500 indictments the script would be the same.

[kurth]

20. Same way Russert did

Kissing up to the right wing by badmouthing Democrats while the GOP was on its march back to Washington, starting with Reagan.

[Mist]

14. Buchanan just said: "I count this as a very good day for the WH,

compared to what I thought it could be." Hey, Pat, it's not over, no matter how you try to minimize it.

[DURHAM D]

17. NBC/GE hacks Tweety, Mitchell and Fineman set this up last

week when they kept going "This is big. This is really big. This is a giant story. This reaches into the Pres. and V-President. Its going to be awful."

They (esp. Tweety) said it over and over again. He had his marching orders from Andy and Karl. The point being that when the indictments came down, be it 5 or 145 in number, after a respectable wait of 20 minutes all the NBC hacks could start saying this is not such a big deal, not a disaster, minor charges, etc. etc. etc.

[NYCGirl]

32. Howard Fineman was on Franken's show today and said quite clearly

that this is "just the tip of the iceberg" and that it's not over by a long shot.

[emulatorloo]

38. It is a giant story, it is big -- just gonna take a while. EOM

[spooky3]

22. Complain to (and donate to) MediaMatters.org). Also, how fair

and balanced was that group of commentators Tweety chose? Not a single progressive.

[rodeodance]

23. yes, heard that. but Gergan is right. Fitz not shutting down-WH is hangin

g as is Rove.

[Julius Civitatus]

28. Mrs. Greenspan is a reliable WHORE for the White House

She's always been, always will be.

[tishaLA]

29. I thought she was crazy when she said

That Fitz never said there was real harm in Ms. Plame-Wilson's name being released and that he just answered the question generally. BULLSHIT Mrs. Greenspan! He said quite specifically that Ms. Plame-Wilson's exposure hurt intelligence assets for the US.

[underpants]

31. Eh...don't take the bait this is huge and people know it

[Gregorian]

33. Someone tell the wine drenched whore that this is bigger than just lies.

Today is the first time I've actually watched televised news since the mid 80's. You guys have hearts of steel, I tell you! My stomach cannot take that stuff.

It's not just lies, damnit! It's war and it's death. But GE won't let it's employees speak the truth. They make bombs.

[The_Casual_Observer]

35. It's all about the WMD lies. It's much bigger than they want to admit.

The focus is on those lies from NOW ON.

[Garbo 2004]

37. Andrea, Andrea, what did you know and when did you know it? n/t
