The immortal words of Kent Dorfman (bear with me, I'm on an Animal House kick) came to mind when hearing that Scooter Libby is gonna drag every reporter under the sun into court in his upcoming trial for perjury and obstruction in the Plamegate affair. This was previously rumored, now confirmed. The Libby trial holds promise to be a much bigger circus than Saddam's. Woodward, Pincus, Cooper, Mitchell, Kristof, and don't forget the Novak twins. And just think, the NY Times will be forced to withstand another barrage of Judy Miller, just when they had begun to wash their hands of her dark, germ warfare-riddled legacy with Risen's Bushilteristic NSA story.
Get the popcorn ready, folks, the Aspens will soon be in bloom.

JOM has been the go-to blog for all things Plame. Today is no exception. McGuire reminds us that:
Someone ought to mention the recent Wen Ho Lee rulings, which buttressed the right of the defense to go after journalists.Walter Pincus should know that all too well, he's embroiled in both.
