Information To Be Released At Noon, Press Conference At 2:00PM
WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The special counsel investigating the leak of a covert CIA operative’s identity will hold a news conference at 2 p.m. EDT on Friday to discuss the status of the probe, his office said in a statement.
The statement said information on the case will be available at noon.For the past 24 hours it’s been reported that I. Lewis “Scooter” Libby, Jr. would be facing indictment for perjury and that Karl Rove would not. Nothing has changed in that regard…

While they’re indicting Scooter Libby, can they also indict Scooter the talking baseball, too? Man, that thing was annoying!
I think that’s something on which both Left and Right can agree.
LMAO@Laurence! Agreed! Thanks to Scooter, I felt like I was suddenly thrust onto some PBS kids’ show. “Now this is a fastball, boys and girls. It goes fast! Zing! Right by the batter!”
WTF? LOL
Re: The real Scooter. Let’s try and remember that an indictment only means there is probable cause for a trial, it does not mean Libby is guilty. He hasn’t even had a chance to defend himself yet, so he should be presumed innocent until proven guilty. And we don’t even know for certainty that anyone is even being indicted yet; it’s all rumor at this point as it has been for 2 years.
It’ll be a relief to finally have the friggin’ facts…at least those that Fitz chooses to release.
– Some interesting questions….
– What is the punishment for evading/lying about actions/statements of whitehouse staff covered by executive privalege…..
– Why did we spend 22 months and the ancillary costs to the taxpayer to investigate the “outing” of a non-covert cia agent….
– Why isn’t the grand jury at all interested in the whole nefarious scheme of the Dems to use a mole to plant false information and bolster the anti-war agenda, repeatedly lying on the facts of the case….
– Is Fitzy going to “expand” into areas that will be even more embarissing to the Liberals behind this whole partisan scheme….
– How much longer will the NYT get away with publishing Liberal lies….
Ironically, it looks like Libby will be indicted for lying about telling the truth to reporters.
Assuming Joe Wilson testified to the grand jury, he must have told the truth about lying to America.
