How much sympathy do you feel for Judith Miller after 41 days and why?

If she is not willing to testify after 41 days, then she is not willing to testify. It's time for the judge and the prosecutor to let Ms. Miller go.

It is true that some journalists have abused and overused unnamed sources over the years. But in the main, the secret source is not a convenience for the news media or a shortcut for an easy story. He or she is the backbone of a free and independent press. Think about the civil servant who sees a superior lying and breaking the law. Think about the employee who sees a manager whitewashing a report on a hazardous product.

1. Wow! These are some dumb, dumb people.

2. Oh let's let Judy spend a year or better in jail, she really needs to

re-think her thoughts and beliefs. I believe when she gets around the passing of the new incoming year it may have dawned on her that she's staying in jail indefinitly.
I would simply ask Ms. Miller; are you ready to answer questions? "I'll be back in a month for your reply.

3. Keep her in there.

She's deep in Bush doo doo and she knows it. Using journalist privileges to harbor their crimes is disgusting! No honest judge will see through this weak excuse so she may have a long vacation behind bars.

(BTW, did anyone hear that her husband went on a Mediterranean cruise while she was in jail? What a loving relationship they must have.)

4. There's one creature which I'm sure has no sympathy for her.

5. She's a war criminal. Throw away the key. NT
