Isn't what he was trying to hide immaterial, if anything? You know, the 5th?

But he didn't take the 5th amendment. He lied. That's a pretty big difference. One is not incriminating yourself, the other is misleading a prosecutor and obstructing justice.

No doubt he'll be responding again too so if people keep wanting me to comment so be it.

I want you to comment. There are a lot of points I brought up and questions I asked of you directly that remain unanswered, and I'm curious what your thoughts are on them.

A quick update:
Valerie Plame's lawsuit dismissed

[ QUOTE ]
U.S. District Judge John D. Bates dismissed the case on jurisdictional grounds and said he would not express an opinion on the constitutional arguments. Bates dismissed the case against all defendants...

[/ QUOTE ]
I can't wait to see how this gets spun by administration loyalists. I'm guessing this will somehow be interpreted as "proof" that Plame wasn't covert.

One of the first things a judge is going to do is decide whether or not he has jurisdiction. If he doesn't then it doesn't proceed. Very simple and logical actually.
