[…] During the dark times, back when Republicans ruled the world and most democrats ran for cover, a few bloggers thought this CIA Leak case was a big deal. David Corn, Washington Reporter for The Nation, also, thought that this CIA Leak case was a big deal. John from Crooks and Liars , Jane and Christy from Firedoglake and Glenn Greenwald of Unclaimed Territory (now of Salon.com) were the ones that kept striking the match until they had a fire. LiberalOasis has the story, here. You can also bookmark this on del.icio.us or check the cosmos […]

So many thanks to everyone at FDL for fabulous, wonderful, incredible work. I’ve sent in a (belated) contribution and wish it could be more. You guys deserve zillions. On the appeal, could you give us a rundown on the current makeup of the DC Circuit? Of course Silberman is a goner, but is everyone there now a Silberman clone? In the Fifth Circuit where I clerked many years ago, panels were composed by a sort of lotto wheel. How does it work now in the DC Circuit? If the chief judge sets the panels, I’m afraid we’re cooked. Again, many, many, many thanks – where would we be without you?

Valerie & Joe - never have so many been so happy for a couple!

Two questions for the firepup legal eagles:

Will the court let Libby dress in a suit when he is called to testify at the Plame/Wilson civil trial?

Is their trial coming up this summer?

Here in the UK the BBC News at Ten report on the verdict is that although the case involved a lot of evidence at its heart it was about Iraq, the Niger allegation in the State of the Union address and an attempt by a member of the Bush inner circle to cover for his boss, the Vice President following a dishonest attempt to exact revenge on Mr and Mrs Wilson; Mr Wilson was interviewed during the report which also included an old video of Bush looking very fed up as he gets on board his plane after refusing to answer a reporter’s legtimate question on the case.

Thank you to all at FDL for the part you played in making sure that the bad guys did not get away with it - at least so far as this case goes.
