  • Taking Bets: Who in DC gets indicted?

    Now that speculation is running rampant that indictments are going to be tomorrow. Does anyone want to take bets as to who get to do the perp walk soon?

    I'm guessing with near 100% certainty that Libby will be indicted.

    50-50 that Karl Rove skates.

    40% chance of Cheny being an unindicted co-conspirator. I don't see him being indicted if only because he's immune from prosecution, IIRC.

    5% chance of Joe Wilson, if only because of a cosmic quirk of fake.

    25% of Judith Miller. She's not the journalistic hero that she plays herself to be, and I'm almost buying into the conspiracy theories.

    0% of President Bush. It's not going to happen. I think he was blissfully ignorant of the whole Plame leak.

    Does any DC polytubbie want to place a beer bet on whether Karl or Cheney gets indicted?

    Why isn't Marion Barry on your list? Sure, he has nothing to do with the Plame leak, but I doubt he's done getting indicted for things in DC.

      Barry is busy barely behaving himself while missing important city council votes.

        I thought Marion Barry was going to plead guilty before being indicted?
        I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

          I'll love it if Cheney is indicted, he's Shrub's brain after all.

            I'd bet someone $100 that Cheney won't be indicted, but after the way my Martin Sheen bet played out, I think my gambling days are over.

                    My money is on Libby and Rove while Cheney gets an honorable mention but avoids actual indictment.

                      My rule of thumb is that anyone in the Administration with a really BAD wig should be brought up on charges

                      So Bolton is in for sure.
