Wow what an update about a boring, pointless case. How can you get excited about this? Please, both of you go home and feed your 30 cats and stop making videos.

[Politicstv]

You know it takes 31 cats to make cat soup.

This firedoglake is nonsense. I was making comments that were not leftist and they threw me off. Yeah! They have all these lunkheads who post profanities and swear constantly but if you have an opinion that is cogent and against their communist dogma they will not allow you to post. Try it and see what happens. They are phonies who are against true discussion.

excellent video - love how JDorks thinks this is pointeless - hey, JDorks, TREASON is never pointless.

Jdubs is busy following the Anna Nicole tabloid case because he/she is infatuated with big pretty color graphics, while treason and serious offenses that affect more than just one person are a little too complicated. Maybe if boobs (Cheney's?) were involved Dubs would get into it.

Conspiring by Cheney, Rove, and Libby to blow a CIA agents cover who had spent a considerable amount of time and risk for this country working on the non proliferation of nuclear weapons is treason. They have put this country in far greater danger and have shamed this country. Torture? Illegal wire tapping, and these guys lied to us about Iraq being an immenent threat to us. Hundreds of thousands of people are dead and many more are being killed daily.

I agree. That the vice president used falsified evidence to lead the country into war is trivial. That they smeared the people letting us know the evidence was phony is even more trivial, and leaking the name of an undercover CIA agent is less than trivial.

Great video thanks.

[JDubs45]

At least spit your gum out before filming.

Thank you for doing this reporting This is a boring case but hardly pointless. Whe you have a secretive government people will be wronged. I would have expected this in Russia, North Korea and Iran BUT never in the US. This is frgihtening.
