Scooter, We Hardly Knew Ye

So, ya' think Dubya's week could have been much worse? Yeah, I realize it's only one five-count indictment against a largely unknown political hack in the White House, but such a thing hasn't happened in 135 years, so it's certainly newsworthy. The worse news for Dubya and crew, however, is that the investigation doesn't appear to be over. Will Karl "Turd Blossom" Rove be next? Could Fitzgerald and his next grand jury put the White House out of business? Probably not, but it'll be interesting in the meantime. At the very least, watching the GOP spin this weekend trying to downplay the severity of perjury and obstruction of justice(those used to be high crimes, remember?) over the weekend.

If you're so inclined, you can read the indictment or the much briefer press release from the Special Counsel's office.

Oh, and the theme song for the day? Why, Zappa's "When the Lie's So Big," of course!
