Leak case announcement seen Friday - Yahoo! News
Patrick, you BIG TEASE!

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald does not plan to act in the CIA leak case on Thursday, a spokesman said, setting the stage for the prosecutor to make a last-minute announcement on indictments before the grand jury expires on Friday.

"There are no announcements expected today," said Randall Samborn, Fitzgerald's spokesman.

Fitzgerald has zeroed in on Lewis Libby, chief of staff for Vice President Dick Cheney, and Karl Rove, President George W. Bush's top political adviser. Both have been advised that they could face charges over the leak of covert CIA operative Valerie Plame's identity, lawyers in the case said.

Other current and former administration officials may also be charges, the lawyers said.

Well, OK, then. *grumble* We can chew over Harriet for a day...and so far that's a good thing. I'm hearing "Christian agenda" and "radical right" coming from the mouths of pundits. The tide has shifted. Maybe America will finally wake up to what these folks are all about.

The first pundit that uses "American Taliban" gets a card of thanks from me. :-)
