Like most Americans, I have a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving.

What I'm most thankful for is that I'm not in jail eating processed turkey on a plastic plate.

I'm thinking about the children of the incarcerated. There are more than 2.4 million kids with parents...

Shakespeare: Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.

A writer named Patrick Healy yesterday critized Hillary Clinton in a tabloid-type trash article in the New York Times because of her laugh which he calls a "cackle." The implication: Hillary is a witch.

The New York Times and Washington Post have long articles today in which the reporters try to trace Norman Hsu's fund-raising contributions to Democrats. The articles practically take it as a given that Hsu's fund-raising was illegitimate because he was a a fugitive from...

President Bush's commutation of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby's sentence is simply stunning, both in its hypocrisy and its arrogance.

His spokespersons had assured the public he would not interfere in the judicial process until the appeals court had decided the merits of his appeal.

"Scooter Libby still has...

A few months ago I wrote a post about a news article saying Google was looking to hire. They are using psychological profiles to find employees with a good fit for the company. In my fantasy world, I considered how much fun it would be to relocate to San...

Guilty on count 2 - False Statement, Russert

Not Guilty on count 3 - False Statement, Cooper

Guilty on Count 4 - Perjury

Guilty on Count 5 - Perjury

Update: Dennis Collins, juror. "I am not excited to be...

I'm so conflicted.

I believe that the Office of the Vice President, particularly Dick Cheney and Scooter Libby, went all out to attack Joseph Wilson after his July 6th New York Times Op-ed criticizing the intelligence relied on by the Administration to justify its decision to go to war...

3:00. Wells is back up.

In a case where what is at stake is a man's reputation and a man's freedom, the benefit of any confusion must go to Mr. Libby. No...

Wells is up now. The jury is coming in.

I was sitting there listening to the prosecutor talk about my opening. Maybe I was drunk...

Peter Zeidenberg begins the Government's closing argument. The judge intends for closings to finish today.

He begins with Wells telling the jury in opening argument about how the White House hung...

Former prosecutor Victoria Toensing has an op-ed in the Washington Post today (debunked nicely by Larry Johnson) outlining her case for Scooter Libby's acquittal. In two words: jury nullification.

(Thanks, Victoria, for attempting to personally smear the prosecutor on the eve of closing arguments. I bet if a...

It's 3:15 pm and the jury is about to enter the courtroom for the first time today. The defense will be recalling CIA briefer Craig Schmall. John Cline will question him.

But, we still have no judge, no jury and no explanation. Everyone is just sitting around doing nothing. Libby's...

Washington, DC got a sliver of snow and ice last night, resulting in a late courtroom start. Judge Reggie Walton began around 11:45 am rehearing the legal arguments from yesterday afternoon about whether there would be more testimony from the CIA briefers, whether Russert would be called back to the...

The Libby trial is going out with a whimper. PlameGate followers, like Jane Hamsher of Firedoglake, feel cheated. Without testimony from Vice President Cheney or Scooter Libby, there's no bang for the buck.

"When Ted Wells came back from lunch today and announced that he had released Dick...

Ted Wells announced they will rest their case tomorrow. Neither Libby nor Vice President will testify. Wells said he and Jeffress advised Libby and he accepted their advice.

The defense wants to call the three CIA briefers tomorrow for about 20 minutes. Wells said he will play some Russert tapes...

The early morning today began with more legal arguments over Andrea Mitchell. Bottom line: Wells is not going to call her. Marcy at Firedoglake has the details.

The defense called Jill Abramson of he New York Times. As expected, she testified she had no recollection of Judy Miller...

Arianna wrote a few days ago that there are two trials going on in the Prettyman courthouse in D.C. One is designed to determine whether Scooter Libby is guilty of making false statements to federal investigators, lying to the grand jury and obstructing justice. The other is a referendum...
