Great compliment to firedoglake Libby Blogger in AP article: “FBI Agent Testifies Libby Learned About Plame from Cheney
Scooter Libby”

CONGRATS! WELL-DESERVED!!

Agreed. This is the one and only trial in this case. Even with a conviction of Libby, the greymail and executive privilage arguments still apply to anyone up the chain.

Fitzmas @ 134

I don’t consider Libby and Rove big fish. Do you? More like bait.

Fitzmas @ 110

Surely, people aren’t suggesting Rove flipped, as in Fitz used an indictment (as in sealed v. sealed) as leverage to get him to cooperate? Go figure…

But, as others have said, how do you flip a guy and then not call him to testify?

I guess I’d like to think of them as bait, but I’ve always gotten the vibe from Fitz that this trial is the end of the road. Like at the press conference when he said this all could have been over back in October 2004 rather than October 2005. His investigation was basically “done” in 2004, except for the reporters who wouldn’t talk, and then he had to force them to talk, etc. I’ve just never gotten the feeling that this case is like the George Ryan case, or any of the Illinois cases.

Do we know definitively that these [grand jury transcripts] will be played for the jury? (crossing fingers)

Fitz wants to play all seven hours of Libby’s Grand Jury testimony — and I assume that the jury will also be given transcripts to follow along….

Everything that Libby said in GJ is admissible….

oh please oh please oh please
