POPSCheney Caught in Plame Game? 72 Times "Can't Recall" Liar with selective memory--Remember this was about the vindictive and illegal outing of CIA agent Valerie Plame for Ambassador (and her husband) Joe Wilson's NY Times editorial article contradicting the lies of "yellow cake" uranium from Niger to Saddam Hussein to "prove" WMD and launch a war. Among the most basic questions for Cheney in the Plame probe: How did Libby find out that the wife of Bush administration war critic Joseph Wilson worked at the CIA? Libby's own handwritten notes suggest Libby found out from Cheney. When Libby discovered Cheney's reference to Plame and the CIA in his notes - notes that Libby knew he would soon have to turn over to the FBI - the chief of staff went to the vice president Transcripts plus more from CREW's lawsuit here.

POPS10 Best Prison Breaks The last 3: Imrali (1974) At a Turkish island jail, Billy Hayes stole a boat and survived to see the movie adaptation—Midnight Express—win two Oscars. Pretoria Prison (1979) Political activists learned to pick locks while in the clink. (Or did a sympathetic guard help?) They opened 10 doors on the way out. Luynes and Grasse Prisons (2001, 2003, 2007) Pascal Payet called in a hijacked helicopter. He later returned in another to lift out two buddies. Recaptured, he did it again—on Bastille Day.

POPS “Take this job and shove it!” No waitress, factory worker, clerk or bottle washer ever got to deliver a “Take this job and shove it!” like that. Did any country western star ever even think of writing that one? Boo hoo. That’s for the rest of us, because Jake, his boss Edward Libby, these nameless credit-default swap electricians … the ones Jake says shafted us when he was honestly raking in a couple million a year as a financial products plumber in that crappy house … and all the pols and bureaucratic building inspectors who stood by, have put us in a position where we have to pay people who made obscene amounts of money on this screwed-up system even more obscene amounts of money to unscrew it. If in fact that is what they are doing, a point about which I am not confident. I bet we can fly in a planeload of financial brainiacs from Bangalore at a fraction of Jake’s price. Outsourcing Wall Street to India. That’d get their attention.

POPSSarah Palin and the 3-Step Libby Legal Defense Fund Palin should follow Scooter Libby's lead in securing the allegiance of a prominent member of the media to plead her case. For Libby, this faithful mouthpiece was failed CNN and MSNBC host Tucker Carlson. From Libby's indictment and conviction through the commutation (but not full pardon) by President Bush, Carlson declared Scooter's innocence while savaging prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald. (At no time, of course, did Tucker inform viewers that his father Richard was a key adviser to the Libby legal defense fund.)

POPSHow Many Former Bush Administration Officials Sentenced To Jail Time? Eight And Counting
FTA: *For obstructing the Senate investigation into Abramoff and for tax evasion, Italia Federici, a political aide to then Secretary of the Interior, Gail Norton, received a two month sentence in a halfway house. *Fedrici's boyfriend, Steven Griles, who was the number two official at the Interior Department, also received 10 months in jail for his part in the Abramoff scandal. *Bob Stein, the comptroller of the Coalition Provisional Authority in Iraq, received the longest sentence of any Bush official (as of yet) - nine years in prison for money laundering, conspiracy and bribery. *Brian Doyle, a deputy press secretary at the Department of Homeland Security, was sentenced to five years in jail for attempting to use a computer to seduce a child. That] brings the total number of Bush administration officials who have gone to jail already to at least eight," Maddow said. "That is not counting all the other convictions that didn‘t result in jail time, all the other investigatio

POPSAides Say No Pardon for Libby Irked Cheney seemed increasingly to diverge in their second term as Mr. Bush took a less hawkish stance. For Mr. Cheney, the failure to win a pardon was a stinging loss that led him to offer a rare public rebuke of Mr. Bush’s judgment, saying of Mr. Libby in an interview with The Weekly Standard last month that “I strongly believe that he deserved a presidential pardon,” and that “I disagree with President Bush’s decision.” Mr. Libby was convicted of four felony counts in March 2007 for obstruction, perjury and lying to investigators looking into the leak of Valerie Wilson’s employment with the Central Intelligence Agency. Mr. Bush commuted Mr. Libby’s sentence, wiping out the 30-month prison term imposed by a judge.

POPSThomas Tamm - Leaker and Criminal When the Obama Justice Department gets operational, the new Attorney General will decide whether to continue investigating Tamm. That decision presumably will be made with guidance from the White House and President Obama. Obama was a vocal opponent of the terrorist surveillance program, although he ultimately voted for Congress' authorization of a very similar program in the midst of the presidential campaign, angering many on the left. Obama will have to decide whether he wants to uphold federal law and protect sensitive information by vigorously pursuing people like Mr. Tamm who violate the public trust.

POPSIllinois Governor Arrested When I heard this on the radio at 0300 hours this morning, one thought went through my mind..."I bet brown wouldn't appoint such an Attorney to investigate the Prince of Darkness and Slippery Peter Hain, or shag for rail tickets Home Secretaries, or peerages for money Labour PM's."

POPSIllinois Gov. Arrested Over Obama Seat; Obama Denies Knowledge Patrick (Bulldog) Fitzgerald, the squeaky clean federal prosecutor of Libby in the Plame case, is the one behind this arrest, so you can bet it will stick. This is politics, Chicago style, where the government IS the mafia. This is where Obama got his start too, raising questions of course about how he got into power so swiftly on a fast track to become President. The context of this is most interesting and Drudge filled his front page with eight articles on the subject. If only the Feds would wire tap more Governors and politicians instead of conducting wide surveillance on the American people perhaps things would really "change" for the better.
