Wow.

Wow. I'll say it again - freakin' wow.

The federal grand jury probing the leak of a covert CIA officer's identity has subpoenaed records of Air Force One telephone calls in the week before the officer's name was published in a column in July, according to documents obtained by Newsday.

Also sought in the wide-ranging document requests contained in three grand jury subpoenas to the Executive Office of President George W. Bush are records created in July by the White House Iraq Group, a little-known internal task force established in August 2002 to create a strategy to publicize the threat posed by Saddam Hussein.

And the subpoenas asked for a transcript of a White House spokesman's press briefing in Nigeria, a list of those attending a birthday reception for a former president, and, casting a much wider net than previously reported, records of White House contacts with more than two dozen journalists and news media outlets.

The three subpoenas were issued to the White House on Jan. 22, three weeks after Patrick Fitzgerald, the U.S. attorney in Chicago, was appointed special counsel in the probe and during the first wave of appearances by White House staffers before the grand jury.

The investigation seeks to determine if anyone violated federal law that prohibits officials with security clearances from intentionally or knowingly disclosing the identity of an undercover agent.

Wow.

simmer for 5 months then turn up the heat to a boil. Stir occasionally while simmering and then stand back when it comes to a boil

im sure a few mysterious suicides will clear everything up. they have managed to get away with everything else that way. im sure this is just the lying liberal media... and they certainly showed the BBC what we do to those types.

there is a god, Ashcroft is in the hospital. i hope it hurts.

Wouldnt it be ironic if the best treatment for the pain that Ashcroft is suffering happened to be marijuana.

Oh lardy I'd laugh so hard if only that were the case...
