re: This would explain why Bush spent more than an hour answering questions from special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald. It would also fundamentally change the dynamics of the scandal. President Bush could no longer claim he was merely a bystander who wants to “get to the bottom of it.” As Stephanopoulos notes, if Bush played a direct role it could make this scandal completely unmanageable.

Yes, it could be called criminal conspiracy. Not to mention another incidence of Bush outright lying to the US public (which I guess is OK these days).

It's interesting to speculate, but we have to wait for Fitzgerald. If the Reps start attacking him, we'll know it's serious. If Fitz can tie in a deliberate conspiracy to an intentional lie about WMD's, it would be impeachment.

One thing that's weird is how few leaks there are from this GJ. 12 folks with husbands and wives and friends and reporters doing EVERYTHING they can to scoop the story... dozens of lawyer... and very little concrete coming out. It could mean that there is nothing of substance there... or maybe not.

It would also explain why there are many rumors of Bush's unraveling and his return to drinking.
