AUGURING IN: The War Party's Waterloo antiwar.com February 11, 2004 The War Party's Waterloo Get out the dip and chips, pull up a chair – and let the show trial begin! by Justin Raimondo The top two stories on yesterday's front page heralded an event long anticipated in my various columns on the subject: the investigation into the outing of CIA agent Valerie Plame – which may soon be dubbed Scooter-gate – is about to morph into a scandal that could bring down the roof on this administration, and strike a knock-out blow to the War Party. Federal prosecutors are hot on the trail of a series of crimes that may involve more than just the two primary suspects first identified by UPI's Richard Sale – Lewis "Scooter" Libby, the Vice President's chief of staff, and John Hannah, the VP's Middle East policy wonk.
