I can't reply to this post on stinkyfish's thread.....but I found this a particularly good example of ewhat passes for pungent pinhead analysis..... Plame Prosecutor Insists on Time Reporter's Testimony by Armando Tue Jul 5th, 2005 at 11:02:31 PDT Time's Cave-in Has Failed: A federal prosecutor on Tuesday demanded the grand jury testimony of Time magazine reporter Matthew Cooper, even though Time Inc. has surrendered e-mails and other documents to the investigation into the leak of a CIA officer's identity. Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald also opposed the request of Cooper and New York Times reporter Judith Miller to be granted home detention -- instead of jail -- for refusing to reveal their sources. Fitzgerald said allowing them home confinement would make it easier for them to continue to defy a court order to testify. Excuse me folks, but this prosecutor smells blood. Now who's blood remains to be seen. But this type of zealous righteousness from US Attorneys is often seen when they are lied to. Perjury is what it smells like to me. dailykos.com Message 21476883; Well, of course the Prosecutor is going to insist on the testimony, the norte themselves are inadmissible hearsay without authentication.....and of course any prosecutor worht his would oppose home detention in a contempt case like this.....This is SOP. Nothing extraordinary nor in any way leading the the breathless conclusion the pinhead author draws.... J.
