[crispini]

1. Nice video of the front of the courthouse.

Tweety says GJ has entered the courtroom.

He's tapdancing.

[crispini]

4. Dan Abrams is wearing a nice tie for once.

He usually wears these hideous poke your eye out dayglo sleaze lawyer things. I see he decided to dress up.

[gkhouston]

38. aw... did he borrow one of KO's? ;-) n/t

[crispini]

70. hee!

And now it's David Gregory! :loveya:

[trogdor]

2. If we're still waiting...

...keep this kicked as appropriate, please.

[rox63]

5. Damn

My sound card died. I'll have to wait for the video until I get home tonight. x(

[Armstead]

3. So far you're not missing anything

Just a lot of blah,blah,blah speculation.

[Stephanie]

8. On Fox which I just watched at the newstand they kept saying -

that it really wasn't clear that she was actually undercover, and that if perjury is all they can come up with after the hundreds of thousands Fitz has spent investigating, blah blah blah

[FreedomAngel82]

44. AHH!!!

Have they talked to Larry Johnson yet? Obviously not from that bullcrap.

[Sydnie]

6. CNN had the "Brady Bunch" sidebar of the usual shills

nothing of any importance yet.

[crispini]

7. Tweety is cutting over to the WH, who are reportedly "anxious."

Shrub just got back from his speech.

[deadparrot]

9. Where he got heckled...bwahahaha...nt

[cally]

10. Fitz in the courtroom so it will be

anytime now. You missed Joe DiGenovoa spouting Repub talking points how it's the CIA's fault. For once, the CNN reporters refuted his rant.

[AlCzervik]

11. GJ and Fitzgerald are in front of the Federal Magistrate right now

from what i have read thats the process, vote to indict or not, if it's yes then off to the courtroom to have the charges read in front of the judge.

[crispini]

12. MSNBC guy asserting that "the investigation will go on"

but he's just basing that on what Karl's been doing (hiring PR guy).

[cynatnite]

13. For the cube rats...

Sorry, I couldn't resist. :rofl:

[trogdor]

15. Thanks.

We needed that. :-)

[Caoimhe]

18. YUM!

That made my tummy growl!

[stop the bleeding]

20. Where are the wine and crackers ???

Like a nice Voigner?

[gkhouston]

42. whine and crackers over in freeperville. n/t

[Sydnie]

37. Here, have some crazy crackers to go with that

Couldn't resist either.

[Nightjock]

14. There is a big dump truck outside the courthouse

oh no, wait........ It's Candy Crowley.

[MsKandice01]

16. HAHAHAHAHA!!

[LeftNYC]

21. LOL! nt

[DS1]

26. hahahaha!

YES

[MidwestTransplant]

17. Rove's head just spun around 3 times on CNN

Can't believe all you cube dwellers missed it!

[crispini]

23. and then he puked pea green soup! it was great!

kidding, KIDDING.

[crispini]

19. We are still watching live coverage of the front of the courthouse.

Ain't NOTHING happening. :boring:

[gkhouston]

45. sounds like the night they hung around for ages waiting

for Martha Stewart to get out of the pokey. :eyes:

[crispini]

78. Exactly.

Ooo! the car! :eyes:

[IChing]

22. obstruction of justice seems to be the chatter and purjury..just chatter

[sproutster]

28. I thought it was interesting the way they discussed conspiracy

I have my money on that one, and the commentators said that is the one that opens into why america went to war.

[sproutster]

24. Handing up the documents

Standing by... (CNN)

[AlCzervik]

25. The indictment or indictments have been "handed up" to the judge

thats the last step, we should know very soon.

[crispini]

27. MSNBC HAS IT TOO!

HERE WE GO!

[sproutster]

32. Ooh commentary on the indict leaks

[sproutster]

Now...

Materials - yes
Motions - yes
Motions handed to deputy clerk.

We gotta wait for documents. No names/charges mentioned.

[crispini]

29. Dan Abrams has to work in that his dad was Judy Miller's lawyer.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, we all know who your dad is, Dan. :eyes:

[IChing]

30. reading the scooter letter not on the aspens

anyone have that letter? it was another. now reads the aspen letter

[crispini]

31. Tweety is dragging up the Aspens memo again!

:rofl:

[IChing]

33. grand jury has handed out "some indictments" now---tweety

[crispini]

34. Abrams points out that Fitz isn't going to indict in a gray area.

He's gonna be really sure about what he can do.

[cally]

35. Nothing read in court

So we don't know what was in the indictments.

[crispini]

Oooo! We're zooming in on the courthouse!

We find out that it's a foreWOMAN on the jury, not a foreman, per Andrea Mitchell.

[gkhouston]

49. LOL, does she at least have a heavy mustache?

good reporting there, Andrea.

[WA98296]

36. On tweety now

Once they hand up the indictment(s), there is really no reason, there’s nothing more to be done, there’s no reason that can’t be made public. The clerk will make copies....We are VERY close to knowing..

The forewoman has handed up documents...

[sabra]

39. Faux actually has a feed online

if you can handle it:

http://www.foxnews.com/video2/player05.html?102805/cameron_cialeak_102805&FNL&Indictment%20Coming&acc&Politics&-1&new

[crispini]

40. Libby.

False statements and obstruction of justice.

[IChing]

41. libby indictment obstruction of justice false statements

[IChing]

5 counts on libby

[crispini]

43. Five counts Libby

Obstruction of justice
False statements
Perjury

[Stephanie]

46. No one else?

Dang I wanted MORE.

[crispini]

52. Yea but won't the investigation be ongoing?

I hope so.

[Sydnie]

53. one cound obstruction, 2 perjury, 2 false statements n/t

[IChing]

47. lied twice, purgery twice, obstruction 1

[crispini]

48. Prosecutor says her NOC status not known outside

intelligence community.

[Straight Shooter]

51. Yes!

That's the definitive statement. Onward Fitzian soldiers!

[gkhouston]

sweeeet!! n/t

[Stephanie]

54. Okay that's good - Fox has spent all morning lying about that

That's very good - that goes to Cheney.

[crispini]

50. Obstruction of justice count

alleges that he was trying to impede the GJ investigation. Misleading and deceiving the GJ.

[SophieZ]

58. For the cable - less : ABC TV is covering.

[crispini]

55. Libby aware that Val was a NOC when he was talking to all those reporters.

[IChing]

56. spoke to tim russett lie, matt cooper lie, under testimony

[crispini]

57. Libby talking to Judy, July 2003.

Told Judy he'd heard from other reports that she was a NOC from other reporters. Libby's account of his conversation with Judy was a lie.

Scooter set GJ off in the wrong direction, interfered with investigation, with his lies.

[crispini]

59. Now they're recapping who Scooter is.

Yawn.

[crispini]

60. Discussion with Tim Russert.

Tim talking about his subpoena in 2004. Talked to Fitz under oath but not before GJ. Was asked if he was recipient of leak. Answer was NO. Asked if he knew Vals name or if she was a NOC, answer was NO.

Libby spoke to Russert in July to complain about something he'd seen on TV, that was it.

[crispini]

61. Russert thinks Libby will resign.

[IChing]

62. asking russett his testimony

russett talks: he is nervous in the interview with brian, russett is trying to put a spin on
his shit.

[crispini]

63. Russert wondering if there will be a trial or plea bargain.

Pointing out a trial will sort of put the Iraq war on trial, the VP on trial.

Russert saying his sole contact with Libby at the time was that Libby called to complain about programming on "one of our cable news networks." Russert called the president of the network and let him know.

I wonder who it was, if it was MSNBC? :rofl:

[Dinger]

67. Wonder What Meet The Press Will Be Like This Sunday?

Who will the guests be? Probably an all-repug panel of "experts."

[IChing]

64. your sole contact was...libby's complaint on programing ..russert

libby contacted russert to complain about programming, first time timmy heard.

[crispini]

65. Referencing Cheney saying misleading things on MTP

"not a crime to say misleading things on MTP.

[crispini]

66. Cheney told Libby that she worked at the CIA.

Libby also learned from other sources. Shit, which was FIRST?

[crispini]

68. Reference to VP is "benign," appears learned about Val from State.

From STATE? Hmm

[Stephanie]

73. Bolton?

[gkhouston]

77. benign, my ass. Stay tuned. n/t

[bluedawg12]

69. CNN- info. being gathered about Joe by WH before his Op ed

piece. The WH tried to discredit Joe early on.

Now they will go to trial and investigate why this all happened and maybe unravel the reason for war.

[crispini]

71. Rove's "status has not changed"

he remains under investigation. -- David Gregory quoting Rove's lawyer.

[bluedawg12]

72. This may lead to a war between cia and wh - greenberg on CNN

speculating as to motives for the surveillance of Joe.

[bluedawg12]

75. CNN- Libby lied to FBI agents- Libby claimed that

he did not know about Valerie's status when he spoke to Russert in 2003.

[bluedawg12]

79. Libby knew he made a statement to Cooper claiming that he

did not know about Val being a cia agent- but he did actually knew that she was.

[bluedawg12]

82. Cooper and Russert led to uncovering lies by scooter

allegedly.

[bluedawg12]

87. CNN- Joe's claim that VP sent him made them angry

but clearly Joe did not say the VP sent him, only that the VP wanted info. on Niger.

Get ready for more attacks on Joe W.

[IChing]

74. Libby facing 30 years in prision just said

[crispini]

76. THIRTY YEARS!

Tweety saying he's squeezing Scooter to go after Cheney, maybe?

[trogdor]

85. PMITA prison, I hope.

Not the fake kind. /officespace

[speedoo]

80. Faux just quoted Luskin (Turdblossom's attny) that KKKarl ...

was about to be indicted this week, but that Luskin presented some "new info" to Fitz and Fitz agreed to hold off pending further investigation.

So KKKarl is still in deep doodoo.

[gkhouston]

84. yeah, Fitz said, "here's another couple feet of rope...

show me your best knots..."

[crispini]

81. Abrams saying that Fitz obviously

"believes the reporters" not Libby in his account of their conversations.

[crispini]

83. Abrams thinks that because Scooter means Libby is the only one named,

it means they don't have anything against Cheney.

[gkhouston]

86. wonder if he'll still hold that opinion if Fitzgerald does

decide to continue investigating with a new grand jury...

[crispini]

99. We'll find out in 45 minutes.

This indictment is interesting reading.

[crispini]

88. INDICTMENT here, go read it!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x5204684

[ourbluenation]

89. Thx Guys - keep em coming...cubester. eom

[crispini]

90. Wow. NOT answering question about

whether or not someone in WH blew Val's cover.

No allegation that any laws were broken prior to investigation. :(

on MSNBC now, they are reading the indictment.

[gkhouston]

93. odd that that subject would be untouched

are you thinking what I'm thinking? I'm thinking this man isn't finished digging...

[crispini]

97. Yep.

Reading indicment now. Very clear.

"Prior to July 14, 2003, Valerie Wilson's affiliation with the CIA was not common knowledge outside the intelligence community."

So much for THAT talking point, asshole freepers!

[bluedawg12]

91. CNN- on Novakula, Libby knew Novakula would be writing

a story about Wilsons wife. Nothing further on the old fart.

Novak not available to speak to the press-- he's asleep in his coffin?

[texpatriot2004]

94. "asleep in his coffin" LOL You're so good. n.t

[bluedawg12]

96. amazing times tex- no? whoda thought this 2 years ago! n/t

[crispini]

92. Scooter resignation official.

[bluedawg12]

95. CNN- breaking: Scooter resigns. n/t

[bluedawg12]

98. Begala- I will return honor and dignity to the WH -shrub vowed

and now this mess with darth Cheney in the center.

Begala must relish this after defending Big Dog against the horror show of the past.

Now some fat pig-- from the right has managed to work in Big Dog- the Judicial watch puke.

[bluedawg12]

101. repig- trying to blame Joe and calling him a liar even before the

ink has dried on the indictment of scooter.

he is reading the congressional investigation- claiming that there was reason to believe that Niger had talked with Iraq-

Wolff just shut the repig up.

[Alamom]

102. Real happy about that......

The shutting up part.

[nomatrix]

100. Paul Begalia-even Al Gore wasn't as powerful as Dick Cheney

Paul Belgalia- 1st time in 130 yrs. a senior WH official has been indicted. This blows a hole in the "restores honor and dignity to the WH"

[texpatriot2004]

103. Go Paul nm
