investigation. Why is that?"
My comment: And we still haven't investigated 911 - which happened 2 years ago.

3. In fairness, O'Neil has not been investigated. |
|
It was only yesterday that Treasury decided to investigate.
I haven't seen anything to make me think they have even started yet.

6. No! It took 70 days before they even moved to start an investigation |
|
70 days to get to the point they are now at with O'Neill.

7. I think if you check the record it took 70 days for an special prosector |
|
to be announced. That doesn't mean there was no investigation before then.

14. it's about the level of interest |
|
When it's damaging to Bush, there's zero interest, when it has retaliation value against Bush critics they're all over it.

It took 70+ days before they announced that there would be ANY investigation...The special prosecutor was only just announced recently.
July: Novak prints article outing Plame Sept: An investigation is announced Dec: Ashcroft recuses and Fitz is appointed

4. Why is that? Betrayal of the nation versus "betrayal" of bush |
|
That thin-skinned arrogant waste of oxygen thinks no one, but no one, should ever reveal his hubris-infested policies.

15. that doesn't necessarily mean that he got it |
|
from this guy...I am sure there are a dozen possible people who have said similar things... Accusing him of verbal plagarism is a pretty serious charge.

13. Josh Marshall's take on this is great. |
|
Number of days between Novak column outing Valerie Plame and announcement of investigation: 74 days. Number of days between O'Neill 60 Minutes interview and announcement of investigation: 1 day. Having the administration reveal itself as a gaggle of hypocritcal goons... Priceless!
