"Are you willing to go to prison to protect VP Cheney?"

[myrna minx]

That was a question posed by a reporter to Libby on live MSNBC feed. :rofl:

[Richard D]

1. and libby's answer??

[myrna minx]

6. LoL he was whisked away by his attorney.

He didn't answer, but I love that an incredulous reporter asked the question.

[tridim]

7. Run away.. Fast.

[CoffeeCat]

15. Scooter escaped on his scooter!

Ride like the win!

Avoid the truth at all costs!

[hang a left]

2. Crap

How did I miss that.

[itsmesgd]

3. that was the question of the hour

[Alamom]

4. I heard it just now on CNN.....no comment from Skooter. n/t

[doublethink]

5. Heard it loud and clear over on CNN too !!!

As Libby and his lawyers walked away from the mics. That was great! :rofl:

[jackstraw45]

8. What about protecting the Shrub?

VP Memo from SEPTEMBER 2003:

9. It sounded like David Schuster....

n/t

[myrna minx]

10. You may be right. It did sound like him.

I can't wait to see him on Countdown tonight.

[mzmolly]

14. Me either!

:hi:

[myrna minx]

19. I thought it was Shuster too.

[leftofthedial]

11. the aspens are quaking

the aspens are all connected by the roots

[Horse with no Name]

20. The aspens have root rot

One has to wonder if they will attempt to save them or bulldoze them?

[havocmom]

12. Sentencing June 5? Plenty of time to flee

if he doesn't want to hang on until the pardon.

Folks, I am as happy about the verdict as the next guy, but junta history has taught me not to celebrate without waiting for the other shoe to fall. Hate to throw cold water about, but Cheney is not gonna take any chances with Cheney's ass.

Scooter would do well to avoid hunting trips.

[grace0418]

13. He figures it's either prison or an unfortunate plane crash.

It's not love for Cheney.

[glitch]

18. Or he finds a look-alike, slips him a mickey and flees to a warmer climate.

Still, gotta fear the Cheney goons. And Cheney will have to fear the Bush goons, when his time comes {{{{{soon}}}}}.
Perhaps the new american century will be known as The Time of The Goon Wars.

16. did i just hear that he won't be charing anyone else

and that the investigation is inactive? why not just say over, closed, finished?

[myrna minx]

17. Fitz's words are always very measured.

I wonder if he is adjourning his grand jury? :shrug:

[bleever]

22. Fitz also said:

"If they wish to pursue any options, they can contact us — and we aren't going to comment on that, just as we don't comment on any other case."

(via FDL; paraphrased)

[Nickster]

23. Because, it's dependant on what he gets from Libby. They are going to be

negotiating for a good sentence, so Libby still has a chance to see the light and give up the next step on the ladder. Once they get past the sentencing, then who knows what's going on.

[ronnykmarshall]

21. Come on little canary ...

Sing! Sing!

[sarcasmo]

24. Great question.
