Fitz and crew evacuate DC courthouse after suspicious package

http://www.newswatch50.com/news/national/story.aspx?content_id=B4C8B9D1-53A3-43B2-90F5-C50CC190AB6E

Suspicious package prompts evacuation of federal courthouse in D.C.

WASHINGTON (AP) - A federal courthouse within sight of the U.S. Capitol has been evacuated because a police dog sniffed out a suspicious package.

The building was cleared just before a hearing was to begin in the CIA leak case.

The defendant in the case, Vice President Cheney's former aide Lewis Libby, had not arrived yet. But a special prosecutor and his associates joined more than a hundred others waiting on the sidewalks nearby.

3. If it wasn't so fucking sad
It'd be funny.
I certainly hope they were able to get all of their belongings out with them before they were whisked away.

13. The desperation of this cabal is
just getting more farcical than Flash Gordon. They'll be reporting burning bags of doo doo on porches Halloween night.

15. You have got to be pulling my chain...
Holy crap... Well, that's one way to keep Libby out of the media spotlight before the elections! And note "Libby had not arrived yet"

Gee, I wonder why? :sarcasm:

Is that our righteous hero's backside? Sigh.

Let's hope team Fitz put the important docs (and a few hidden cameras) in all the smart places.
