The Judy File: Miller’s UN-likely Visitor (Bolton)
this stinks to high heaven:

Ever since President Bush slipped him in through the UN's backdoor via a recess appointment, John Bolton has been giving reporters the cold shoulder. But Bolton apparently has a warm spot in his heart for at least one journalist: none other than Judy Miller. A trusted Judy File source just e-mailed to say that Bolton had recently taken time out of his busy schedule to pay a jailhouse visit to Judy. No word on what they talked about.

Maybe they swapped notes on Pat Fitzgerald (Judy: “He really got mad when I wouldn’t tell him what he wanted...” Bolton: “...and they say I’ve got a temper!”) Or maybe they just talked about old times, when Bolton was reportedly a regular source for Miller’s WMD and national security reports. Just two potential Plamegate sources shooting the breeze. For anyone who doesn’t find this jailhouse get-together highly UN-usual, please give me the name of the journalist who, in or out of jail, would get a visit from John Bolton.

11. Conspiracy to obstruct justice
Why weren't the Feds listening in on their conversation? That's A-okay under the new Bush Bill of Rights.

6. They would be allowed to tape her visits,
unless she was with her lawyer, wouldn't they? Wow. Think John and Judy might have been conspiring to commit obstruction of justice? "Thanks, Judy, for not giving me up to the feds. Keep keeping your trap shut."

5. It may have been...
...corgial, but you can be sure Bolton drove home his message: "You will keep your mouth shut or you'll wish you had."

Please, you mean "cordial."

personally, I think Bolton delivered the message to Judy that the BFEE has way of dealing with stool pigeons...

9. Bolton delivers reassurance to Miller to gain her confidence
"We're with you Judy baby, I spoke with Rove this morning and a judge will intervene, you'll be home by Christmas.

10. Carrot and Stick...
"...listen, Judy, we're appreciative of all you've done for us. Just tough it out and it will be over soon. Now, if you should happen to get a little weak and let something slip, well, I would understand but I can't speak for what Cheney might do, that guy is crazy..."

15. Judy needs to spend, what do you think? a year in jail? More?
At least we won't have to read what she must report at the TIMES.
She has access to a computer?

19. i like wonkette
but sometimes they are too eager to prove people wrong. do you not think that someone like arianna would post this information without doing everything she could to verify it?

20. she`s getting better treatment
than most of the women in there but she still has to put people on a visitor list and phone list. no one can call into the jail. there is a list of who was there -what time they arrived and left. their conversations would not be monitored. i am sure the arrogant witch has pissed off enough people that if he was there we will find out
