This administration's grand schemes always end up as the opposite. Officials say they're promoting national security when they're hurting it; they say they're squelching terrorists when they're breeding them; they say they're bringing stability to Iraq when the country's imploding. (The U.S. announced five more military deaths yesterday.)

I keep wondering whether its by accident or by intent.

And the most dangerous opposite of all: W. was listening to a surrogate father he shouldn't have been listening to, and not listening to his real father, who deserved to be listened to.

It seems Bush I is no longer keeping quiet.

I think that's one reason even the mob doesn't go after wives and kids of rivals and enemies. It tends to upset people, and even your natural allies depart. The Bushies just aren't up to mob standards.

Scooter's not going to flip. He's got a pardon in his pocket. In ten years, he could be the next Oliver North.

Mr. Fitzgerald claims that Mr. Libby hurt national security by revealing the classified name of a C.I.A. officer. "Valerie Wilson's friends, neighbors, college classmates had no idea she had another life," he said.

This part doesn't really jive with the rumors that she was a desk-bound officer at Langley. What did she tell her neighbors when asked "what did you do this week?". She took walks alone every day?
