Rove | Grand Juries

Filed under: Law | FrontPage | Bush Administration — by Will Kirkland @ 3:17 pm

Molto interesante. Some days we hate Grand Juries. Some days we love ‘em

“If Fitzgerald has gone to the extraordinary step of jailing a journalist, and the courts have gone along, he’s very close to having what he wants. He still may not get it (Judy Miller may be the key, in which case I’ll be pretty pissed), but he is close to something; don’t stress yourselves out arguing about that, because it’s just plain true, or the district court would have handed Fitzgerald his ass.

The Mighty Wurlitzer is on full blast right now, so it’s very distressing to hear all these blowhards radically distorting both the facts and the law, insisting that everything’s just fine–and to know that some people are actually listening!. It feels horribly, horribly unfair, I know. Console yourselves with this: Inside the grand jury room, things are just as unfair, but it’s happening to Rove. And boy, he’s had it coming for a while now.”

How does it become a man to behave toward this American government today? I answer, that he cannot without disgrace be associated with it.
