what does Josh Marshall know about Plame indictments??

[grasswire]

Look at this tidbit from today. There seems to be a lot implied between the lines:

"Here are some questions that might be very worthwhile to pose to Scott McClellan tomorrow morning.

The president has instructed members of the White House staff (everyone in the Executive Office of the President) to cooperate fully with the Plame investigation. Does that order to cooperate amount to a bar on White House employees taking the fifth with investigators?

Does the president find it acceptable for members of his staff to invoke their fifth amendment rights in a criminal investigation and still remain on the payroll?

Does the president know whether members of his staff have invoked their right against self-incrimination in the Plame investigation?"

1. How Would He Know?

How would Bush know? Aren't the proceedings of a Grand Jury secret?

On top of that, who the hell is Bush to order anyone to abandon their Constitutional rights?

2. Are you kidding?

You ask those questions of this administration?! I don't think you've been paying attention the past few years. The Rove WH thinks nothing of doing whatever it takes to protect his reign.

3. Terry did say something about pending indictments of WH personnel

on Face the Nation this morning.

and ask those very question .

5. Helen sure will if she is there. I have written to her in the past and

received responses but I do not know where her e mail is right now.
Someone should write to her.

6. I found her e mail address and I did write her a note. I hope that she

does ask the questions and McClellen the dancing bug has to sweat a bit.
