Plame Grand Jury

Former federal prosecutor Elizabeth de la Vega dismantles most of the armchair lawyering that the Intelligence Identities Protection Act is not applicable to Karl Rover or Scooter Libby. True confession -- I half-believed the pundits (shame!) and was expecting Patrick Fitzgerald to focus on obstruction or other lesser charges related to releasing classified data. Until I see a rebuttal as detailed and informed, this observer is betting on a Rove indictment. (Hat tip to TomDispatch.)
