Fitzgerald had two years and came up with bupkus - a perjury and
obstruction indictment against one person on a case where no crime has
been committed. Apparently, it never occurred to Fitzgerald to check
with other journalists to see if they had heard of Plame and her
association with the CIA.

Fitzmas my ass.

PS: I would have emailed you on this ignoring wrecked boats, but I
didn't know if your addy was any good.

Uh...did you skip over this bit:

"The testimony, however, does not appear to shed new light on whether
Libby is guilty of lying and obstructing justice in the nearly
two-year-old probe or provide new insight into the role of senior Bush
adviser Karl Rove, who remains under investigation."

If Libby lied and obstructed, that is a federal crime. Bill Clinton was
impeached by the rabid-right US House of Representatives for lying about
a blow job.

So, I guess that lying about a conversation is a higher crime than lying
about a actual physical sexual encounter between boss and employee.

If we were discussing a certain NW boat broker, well yes, I'd say it
was. There needs to be a certain amount of trust when giving exclusives
to these agents. If that confidence is not honored, where are we? There
are scoundrels out there.

A couple questions, John. How would you react if you had business
dealing with an unscrupulous boat dealer who then published false
stories about you to Usenet? Do you think unscrupulous boat dealers
(those with the business ethics of a used car salesman) should be
reported? Please respond honestly.

I'd probably have vented some.

You said you were stopping. I simply reminded you. Of course, Chuck hasn't
stopped either, but I thought maybe you were going to show more class.

I will cease! Thanks for the reminder.

Yes, depending on the conversation, of course.

Actually the lie was in a sexual harassment suit. Lies in court to prevent
conviction of sexual harassment and paying big bucks to the harassed. A
little bit different than just lies about sex (?) with an employee. And the
defendant did pay $850,000 to plaintiff. So there must have been some
sexual harassment!
