Luis Posada Carriles is free as a bird. http://www.newshounds.us He had excellent connections.

Apparently the prosecutors in Florida muffed the case…perhaps intentionally. It seems pretty easy as he was a) a confessed terrorist, b) a fugitive from justice, and c) an illegal immigrant.

But then again he has a bunch of right-wing Cuban exile politicians (Ros-Lehtinen) and their lapdogs (Gov. Jeb Bush)…pulling strings,

Still wondering if FDL will be brave enough to open up a discussion on the upcoming A*P*C trial that is coming up. Why cover the Libby trial but not this trial?

I’m not sure bravery is the issue. Jane had been following the Fitz trial, long before it was the Fitz trial. aka Plame outing. Notebooks, timelines, every bit of published evidence.

May not want to do same for trial where there is not the same bank of stored knowledge. Not saying that it’s not important, but expert knowledge is the trumper. FDL can’t be all things to all people.

I am not asking FDL “to be all things to all people”. I am asking if they will be brave enough to set up a platform to discuss this critical trial. We know that no one in the MSM will be brave enough to cover this upcoming trial in a fair and balanced way. Will FDL?

Well it took a phenomenal yearlong effort for FDL to be allowed access to the Libby trial. ASFAIK it was the first trial that was actually allowed to be actively blogged LIVE in real time.

The judge in this case may not be very willing to do so. The US Atty may not be willing to place documents on a website so that they can be examined…in addition, there are likely to be even more classified documents in this case than in the Libby trial. Plus the FDL team had to rent the “Plame House” for the duration of the trial and fundraise to afford it. That took a lot of planning and committments of time and energy.

There is no reason that those at American Conservative or other bloggers who are already “experts” on the issue couldn’t have done this much better than FDL, whose expertise lies elsewhere.

So why aren’t they doing it?

THEY ARE TRYING TO BURY THE RUSH STORY. DON’T LET IT HAPPEN FOLKS!

It’s bubbled up to the MSM because the CBS Affiliate in Sacto Channel 13 (ironically the former Sinclair station that consistently attacked Kerry) asked their- OH MY GOD! – their viewers what THEY thought!

And Rush went ICBM ballistic when the survey results were stating that many people DID feel it was “racist”.

So Rush had to send his hordes of flying monkeys out to flood the poll and the CBS website! He announced both on his show…and told them…ATTACK!!!

Q. E. D.

Dude, he’s not LEAVING office.
And, your scenerio does not factor in domestic issues, martial law, yadda yadda . . . why do you THINK Blackwater is building a HUGE facility in the deserts outside of San Diego?
