Those People in Washington are Such Cutups

Is Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald planning to bring criminal conspiracy charges against Karl Rove and Lewis Libby (I don’t like calling him “Scooter”; I don’t think he is cute)? It seems pretty clear that they were guilty of criminal conspiracy, and of making Scott McClellan lie about it. It just isn’t clear they will be charged.

Green Boy (Swopa’s colleague) has decided that Bush actually has honored his 2000 campaign pledge not to use the US military for nation-building, since nothing resembling nation-building has actually been accomplished in Iraq.

Just for fun: Michael Brown political cartoon.
