A day or two after last year’s election, I told a conservative friend that Republicans now have enough rope to hang themselves. I’m astonished that it took them less than a year to oblige. The progressive media are as jittery as a bunch of kids on the night before Christmas because of the indictments that are almost certainly forthcoming from special prosecutor Fitzgerald in the Plame leak. After living on page 10 in newspapers for more than a year, it looks like this story is about to get the front-page treatment. Of course, conservatives (who love to decry our culture of victimization but who also cry alligator tears as they bemoan their never-ending persecution) are spinning this any which way they can. For them, this “criminalization of politics” is the Left’s desperate ploy to thwart the conservative agenda. In other words, conservatives are so good at playing politics that the Left has to resort to quaint concepts like “rule of law” to derail the conservative Utopia that was this close to being realized.
Let the schadenfreude commence.
