Could have been the Best Week Ever

Does any­body else wish that Delay would have been booked the same week that Har­riet Miers quit and Scooter Libby got indicted? Because I am not afraid to admit that the cur­rent sit­u­a­tion makes me smile and giggle to the point of near-​incontinence.

But I want to make two other quick points:

1. Any­body who says that they don’t under­stand the Plame inves­ti­ga­tion is either lying, stupid, or so ill-​informed that they should have their voter reg­is­tra­tion card taken away. The Faf­blog says: “White House staffers leaked a covert CIA agent’s name to the press in an attempt to dis­credit a critic of the flawed intel­li­gence used to sup­port the Iraq War.”
2. I’ll agree with the Repub­li­cans that I wish that they would have indicted these folks for some­thing other than per­jury, obstruc­tion and making false state­ments. I was think­ing trea­son. Cheney, Rove and Libby gave aid and com­fort to our ene­mies, and we are at war, as the Repub­li­cans keep remind­ing me. So let’s have a quickie trial and get with the executions.

There. I feel better.
