As if any of us should be surprised by this but it is fun to watch a freak show lose its zest every once in a while and as Michelle Malkin points out: “Now, will they please go away?” HOW ABOUT IT!? I thought the whole point to their made-up drama was to put emphasis on their desire for privacy.
Just announced today: Judge Dismisses Plame Lawsuit!
That’s right — after a Vanity Fair spread, after a six-figure book deal negotiated by Joe Wilson, and after the writings of her “Memoirs” (to be released), it seems like Plame will have to beg to get her desk-job back at the CIA.

That shot arrows in the air and missed.
But there still could linger contempt of Congress and marginalizing the truth to the Grand Jury.
Honestly Shaw at this point I think Americans are as sick of the Wilsons as they are of Cindy Sheehan.
I beg of them to go find their privacy they allegedly desire…
If she wants to stick around, she definitely needs a Vegas-style act.
Did you know that Markos A. C. Moulitsas wrote posted the following essay in his college newspaper, the Northern Star?
“Military Right”
Published on: Monday, January 25, 1993
It’s truly disturbing how much ado has been made over Bill Clinton’s campaign promise to lift the ban on homosexuals from the U.S. military. It’s ironic how it has taken a president who has never served in the military to make a promise that affects the military in such a negative manner.
Those who have served in the military, such as myself, understand the demands and pressures of military life are incompatible with allowing integration with homosexuals. I’m neither socially conservative or prejudiced, and neither is liberal columnist Mike Royko, Gen. Colin Powell, and influential liberal Democrats Sam Nunn and Les Aspin, all who’ve come out against lifting the ban.
Under military circumstances, as much has to be done as possible to focus the unit’s mission and keep disciplinary problems to a minimum. Worrying about whether the known homosexual sleeping next to you is watching as you change your underwear may seem trivial as you read this, but to the soldier who’s short-tempered after three weeks in the field and four hours of daily sleep, it becomes a matter of great importance to his pride and sensibilities. And in any case, there aren’t many people who would change clothes in a group of co-workers if members of the opposite sex were in the same room watching. There is something inherently uncomfortable about it.
Such fears would go a long way in disrupting efficiency and morale in a unit.
