Scooter Squeals Like A Pig

dueling banjos

The live blogging of the Scooter Libby trial over at FireDogLake is music to our ears. Seems like Libby's defense is to CONFIRM the intentional leak of classified information but to DENY that the leaker was LIBBY and to ACCUSE the WH of trying to cover for Karl Rove.

Savor the flavor for a moment. When the whole "Plamegate" thing started, Rove was the golden boy who could do not wrong so he was allegedly protected by the WH. Now who is he? Election predictor? King maker? Puppet Master? Stooge? Humph. If then were now, would people scurry to cover for Rove so fast? Would Libby even consider squealing like he did today if Bush's Brain was still going strong?

And with approval ratings for Bush lower than the winter weather in the big apple, how much worse can it get for the adminstration? We hate to ask that since the only thing worse than having a corrupt govenment which lies to and spies on its people is to lose precious lives every day for a war that was based on falsehood, conducted with conceit and doomed to fail.
