Fitzgerald’s Words by the Bear

In his news conference Special Prosecutor Fitzgerald used words about Scooter Libby like, ‘He lied’ and ‘He made false statements.’ The way these statements are phased one would assume the man was proven guilty before his trial.
Should not Fitzgerald have said something along these lines, “The Government will prove in court that he made false statements and lied to the grand jury.”
After all Fitzgerald did say, “A man is innocent until proven guilty.”

Don’t expect a joyride from Scooter, Dems

The “Ding Dong, the Bush Is Dead” fever rages on, disappointments notwithstanding. Hurricane Katrina was, politically, a wash. And say what you like about Harriet Miers, but at least the disaffected right wrapped the whole thing up in a month. Meanwhile, the left’s still panting orgasmically about Patrick Fitzgerald’s investigation into what Scooter Libby said to Judith Miller about what Valerie Plame knew about what Joseph C. Wilson IV said . . . zzzz . . . fingers growing heavy . . . losing the will to type . . .
Most Americans have never heard of any of these people. What’s that? You’ve heard of Scooter? No, you’re mistaken, you’re thinking of Skeeter — Skeeter Davis, the late country-and-western singer who had a Top Three hit in 1963 with “Don’t They Know It’s The End of The World/It Ended When You Said Goodbye,” which is apparently what George W. Bush will be singing as Karl Rove’s led out of the Oval Office in handcuffs.
