1. Excellent! Thank you! and recommended!

[chicagomd]

2. No problem.

Enjoy.

[DUBYASCREWEDUS]

6. This may not be the appropriate place to

mention this but I did not know where else to post this. Both MSNBC and CNN have live polls. It might be nice for all DUers to go and vote at both polls.

3. Thanks for posting.

I have put it on our homepage.

[Jara sang]

4. Thanks, I was looking for this.

[Roland99]

5. Thanks! What I *really* want to see is the video of it!

I'm sure that will be forthcoming.

[Nothing Without Hope]

7. Me too - I hope it's posted on the Home Page when it's available.

5th recommendation

9. Video

nytimes.com has a link to a video of the conference in their homepage. I am yet unable to open it...someone else might be able to link it.

12. I checked that video link on the NYT home page and it's to a 25 second

summary by Fitz. But the whole thing ( I assume; I haven't watched it all yet) is available from Can-o-fun and posted in this thread:

13. Wasn't Fitz wonderful - Rove's not off the hook

I'm going to keep that video

[Callalily]

18. Yes, I agree Fitzgerald

was wonderful. He's intelligent, articulate, confident, follows the letter of the law. No personal speculation. His patience with the reporters was extremely professional. He did what a press conference is all about, getting the facts out to the public pure and simple. He is truly the right man for this job.

[TomClash]

20. Yeah, we'll see nt

[Pepper32]

14. Printing this out now. Thanks! (nt)

[donheld]

15. Thanks and Welcome to DU

:hi:

[Fridays Child]

16. "Rove" appears only once in the transcript. Now, how in the world...

...can the talking heads extrapolate from a single reference that he's off the hook? But that's, essentially, what they said, just a while ago. I can't remember if it was Wolf or Tweety---they all run together, anymore.

[neuvocat]

17. Blah, blah, liberal media, blah blah.

I'm using sarcasm to make a point, obviously.

[EuroObserver]

19. Great. Received

(thanks to http://www.bugmenot.com), copied, printing and thinking.

Many thanks!

[Why Syzygy]

21. Correct me if I'm wrong.. but THIS IS IT?

I haven't read all the pages yet, but SCOOTER? THAT'S IT?

Somebody help me.

[uppityperson]

22. It is way not over. Hard to be patient, but be patient.

[dwightspencer]

23. not over. 'til it's over

I do not mind waiting, because Patrick Fitzgerald has displayed that above all else he is a professional. I was so impressed as I was watching him in the press conference that he was humble, polite, and engaging. He did not want to do anything that was not by the book and on the level. That Patrick Fitzgerald is a class act.

[uppityperson]

24. yup. Intergrity, professionalism, good stuff there.

Makes me sad that we should even notice this since this is how people just should be. You know?

[dwightspencer]

25. Maybe it will sink in

Kids are watching this, and discussing it with their parents. This whole situation is chock-full of meaty discussion that promotes thought and could be a good dialog starter on ethics and scruples. I wish we could find more examples on the TV of people putting their best foot forward. It's a shame it took two years of a massive cover-up and thousands of young men and women having thier lives ruined before we could see some light shine on this from a prosecutor who is all about handling the peoples' business.

[PapaJoe]

26. Official A

but they got Scoots by the shortncurlies, either he gives up something Fitz does not have already or he bunks with Bubba for 30 years.

[NNN0LHI]

27. The link doesn't work for me. Do I have to send money to the NYT to see it?

Is there another free link anywhere?
