Fitz Goofed! Recite the New Pleasing Narrative!

Now we have real drama! I thought up some pleasing headlines:

"Libby Wasn't First to Reveal Plame to Reporters!"

"Fitz's Case in Shambles!"

"Bush and Everything He's Ever Done - Justified!"


Woodward creates Deep Throat, Jr., so the press must indulge in this lunacy. First mentioned by ABC News (by the pretty Elizabeth Vargas) earlier, and now in the WaPo. From the Washinton Post.com:
Woodward testified Monday that contrary to Special Counsel Patrick J. Fitzgerald's public statements, a senior government official -- not Libby -- was the first Bush administration official to tell a reporter about Plame and her role at the CIA.

Wow - compelling! Fitz didn't know about Woodward! I almost want to start a 'Free Scooter' Movement!

Surely, Fitz is an incompetent. Good thing the Corpse hasn't been giving him repeated tounge baths regarding his meticulousness and attention to detail.

Of course, Fitz never said that Libby was the first to reveal Plame to reporters. He said on the day of the indictments Libby was the first known official to do so as of that time. But that doesn't stop the press from pursuing their newest pleasing narrative!

When I read this Woodward piece at the WaPo, it jumped of the screen at me. I guess an open-and-shut case against Scooter wasn't going to be interesting enough for the Corpse, so they are going to manufacture the drama.

It's appalling what our modern discourse as evolved into over the last several years.

I was so disgusted by that Post article that I stayed up past my bedtime writing about it. Looks like Woodward is going to drag the Post's credibility through the mud like Miller did with the Times.

With Fred Hiatt writing the Op-Ed nonsense he has on the war, I am not surprised by this at all. Woodward is a made man with the Bushies, so he'll do all he can to stay an insider. It's disgusting and infuriating.
