Synchronize your watches … the madness may come to an end soon … that is, if we don’t suddenly have to declare martial law and invade Iran at the 11th hour. Oh, they wouldn’t do that, would they? Naahhh …
Alternatively, if you’ve read The Way of the World, listened to interviews with Ron Suskind, or considered the unprecedented tape recorded interview transcript with Rob Richer (associate deputy director of operations of the United States Central Intelligence Agency, the number two in command of the Operations Directorate, the part of the Agency responsible for human operations overseas), then this would probably mark your countdown to impeachment.
When time runs out, they’re off scott free. Call it hyperbole if you must, but I’ll very much look forward to checking in with my friends on this matter, as more and more documents become unclassified in the years ahead.
Ron: Now this is from the Vice President’s Office is how you remembered it–not from the president?Rob: No, no, no. What I remember is George saying, ‘we got this from’–basically, from what George said was ‘downtown.’
Ron: Which is the White House?
Rob: Yes. But he did not–in my memory–never said president, vice president, or NSC. Okay? But now–he may have hinted–just by the way he said it, it would have–cause almost all that stuff came from one place only: Scooter Libby and the shop around the vice president.
Ron: Yeah, right.
Oh, and not to mention Scott McClellan’s polite plea for the public to wake up and do something.

It certainly appears as if these brave patriots have likely done all they can, short of saying something that would simply get them assassinated for squealing directly on the President or Vice President.
What would YOU do if you knew a national civic truth so horrid that it defied utterance? What would I do? I honestly cannot say for certain that I would be as brave as these individuals.
