Running with the Ball

Good job, Democrats!

Fitzgerald, a good prosecutor - unlike a run-amuck partisan named Ken Starr - has concluded Libby's trial and passed the ball onto Congress. In a move that gives me hope for the 110th Congress, Henry Waxman (D-CA) is running with it.

Valerie Plame, the former covert CIA agent whose cover was blown after her
husband accused the White House of manipulating prewar intelligence, will
testify before a congressional committee next week, the committee chairman
said on Thursday.
Plame will testify about the disclosure and how the White House handled it in an appearance before the House of Representatives Committee on Government Reform, Chairman Henry Waxman said in a statement.


Cheney's involvement in this sordid affair has been known from the beginning and something should be done about it. National security should not be a political tool, but Republicans used it as one to help their power grabs. Corruption must end in order to make this country stronger and safer. Republicans demonstrated that they are incapable of doing that. Democrats are showing us otherwise.
