Plame

I'm not sure I can add more to reports that Bush himself may be involved in the Plame link then anyone else already has. It seems a number of Democrats are very excited by this one sourced off handed comment by Stephanopoulos, and I would only urge caution until any sort of charges are filed.

WaPo reports that could be as early as this week with a different focus that previously anticipated:

...[A] new theory about Fitzgerald's aim has emerged in recent weeks from two lawyers who have had extensive conversations with the prosecutor while representing witnesses in the case. They surmise that Fitzgerald is considering whether he can bring charges of a criminal conspiracy perpetrated by a group of senior Bush administration officials. Under this legal tactic, Fitzgerald would attempt to establish that at least two or more officials agreed to take affirmative steps to discredit and retaliate against Wilson and leak sensitive government information about his wife. To prove a criminal conspiracy, the actions need not have been criminal, but conspirators must have had a criminal purpose.

Lawyers involved in the case interviewed for this report agreed to talk only if their names were not used, citing Fitzgerald's request for secrecy.

So we're forced to wait and see.
