Will this Wednesday be the day the Plame indictments fly?
I am betting they will. My reason is that the Grand Jury term should be coming to an end. Typically Grand Juries are impaneled for a six month period of time.

The other reason I think Wednesday is the day is that Bushco accelerated the "handover" of Iraq two days early. I speculate they did this because they know the indictments are coming and didn't want to lose this PR opportunity.

1. You are two weeks early
I think they will be on the 14th of July. Just a guess ;)

7. Correct.
I have said 7-14 numerous times in the past six weeks. I am requesting that we all have a bottle of fine wine, and some good food, and have a little DU party that evening. At ten minutes to 9 EST, we should all play "Come Together" by the Beatles, as it was John's campaign song. Then, at 9, we can share a giggle when Sean Hannity looses control on air.

2. Why accelerate the handover for that?
In that case, better for them to have left it until Wednesday so the grand jury indictments would get buried beneath the handover headlines by our trust "libruhl" media.

4. No way that Iraq will overshadow these indictments
If Wayne Madsen is right the fur is going to fly - this will be big, big news.

I don't know...
If there's one thing we can trust our media to do, it's pushing the wrong story and the wrong headline. Especially if it's the 'right' one for the cons.

5. I want to know what the hell Joshua Marshall is sitting on!
Have you been reading TPM? (http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com) What is he saying will happen--did Bushco create those fraudulent Niger docs?

8. I read the documents use the Iranian word hemisphere instead of the
Iraqi word dome which perhaps points to Chalabi involvement, but the real story is did the people who used the forged documents KNOW that they were forged. Did Bush know he was using forged information to gin up support for his war. I also read that Iran has a history of using forged documents to achieve their ends.
