Exactly what information is Judith Miller refusing to divulge ??

[kentuck]

Would she have information that would indict Karl Rove and this Administration? Or does she have information that would protect an innocent "whistle-blower"? What could she be withholding that is worth going to jail for unless it indicts herself? Or does she love this Administration so much that she is willing to cover up a criminal act under the guise of "protecting a source"? Red flags go up when so many questions are raised by her actions. What is she hiding? People deserve to know. She has no right to protect this Administration in the commission of crimes or in the lies of going to war. If she is protecting a legitimate source, it would be understandable but I have my doubts??

1. That she relayed Plame's ID to Novak

She is a snake - probably got fed the story via Rove or Cheney to her best friend Chalabi to her. Times said they wouldn't go with it given their mild embarassment over her failure to check past info given her in this manner re WMD's in runup to war. So good little Bushie that she is ---- planted it with Novak. Novak squealed on her to save his neck. That is how Fitzgerald knew to go after her even when there was no article published with her name on it in the Times.

Just my far out theory du jour.

2. So she is not the hero the are building her up to be ?

She is protecting herself? I don't know who else she would be protecting??

3. Miller sure isn't getting the McDougall treatment.

I haven't seen Miller in chains.

4. She is most definitately protecting herself

From http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2005/07/07/national/main707048.shtml

<snip>

CBS News Correspondent Jim Stewart reports Miller said: "I won't testify. The risks are too great. The government is too powerful."

If this is true, then Miller isn't the martyr she's being painted, willing to go to jail to protect a source. She's going to jail because she's scared to testify, plain and simple.

5. That's a hugely significant point.

It should be trumpeted.

6. So in other words, she thought she had what it takes to play hardball

with the big boys and when it all goes to hell, she's nothing more than a chickenshit whining in a corner? I suppose she thought the bush** crime syndicate would protect her ass if push came to shove and all her machinizations and bullshit ever came home to roost.

Well, that's what you get for being a delusional bitch (don't give me any shit over using that word. I MEAN it in it's most deroggatory connotation. It is intentional. And I am female so I know better than to think I'm disparaging all women when I use this word.)

She was a willing tool of a bunch of bloody fingered liars. She is an arrogant, pushy, obtuse hack trying to pass herself off as a 'journalist' but she's so frigging stupid she got herself caught up in a major criminal offense. So much for intelligence on her part. If she didn't know what she was doing was wrong, no matter how you look at it, then she's too stupid to be out wandering around all by herself as well.

Throw the key away, we're all better off with her in jail.

7. Not only that...

... but since she did not publish the information from the "source" in question, by definition that person is not a "source".

My only regret is that she will get out when the grand jury ends.

8. She's A REPUKE Whore!!!

I thought that was a GIVEN!! Just protecting "the corrupt ones" long enough to figure out their "strategy" for blaming it on the Democrats!!!

Rove WILL walk, they are creating holes in the attacks as we speak! OMG, I NEVER Knew she was an OPERATIVE!!! Tomorrow will be something else!

Why do they call it a Merry-Go-Round??? I see NOTHING merry about the one we're on, can I get off???

9. John Dean thinks she covering up perjury and obstruction against Rove.
