Article I think most of the mainstream media must use the "jumping to conclusions" mat, first conceptualized in the movie Office Space. Turns out that President Bush, Dick Cheney, and Satan did not collaborate on releasing Valerie Plame's identity to the media, therefore not blowing her non-existent cover as a CIA agent. The AP was ecstatic following the initial reports coming from the case: Now in its third year, the CIA leak investigation took a decidedly unwelcome turn for the White House last week. A court filing by prosecutors depicted President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney as setting in motion leaks to the press that ended in the disclosure of the identity of covert CIA officer Valerie Plame.

Libby is denying that anyone involved with President Bush or Vice President Cheney said anything about leaking Valerie Plame's name. Joe Wilson is as much of a joke as Bonkers Sheehan. While the Dems should be playing up their patently qualified centrists Joe Lieberman, Harold Ford, John Breaux, and a handful of others, they continue to bring no new ideas to the table and prop up unbalancd individuals. It's unfortunate that the former majority party for so long has sacrified its principles in a reckless attempt to regain power at any cost.
