'Scooter' Libby guilty on four of five counts - CNN.com
by k at 1:10 pm EST, Mar 6, 2007

Former White House aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby has been found guilty on four of five counts in his perjury and obstruction of justice trial.
Libby was convicted of:
# obstruction of justice when he intentionally deceived a grand jury investigating the outing of CIA operative Valerie Plame;
# making a false statement by intentionally lying to FBI agents about a conversation with NBC newsman Tim Russert;
# perjury when he lied in court about his conversation with Russert;
# a second count of perjury when he lied in court about conversations with other reporters.

Does that make today Fitzmas?

This + the senate and house hearings on fired US attorneys + the continuing fallout of the walter reed medical center scandal + the war in iraq + the MASSIVE NATO lead fight in Afghanistan makes today a very very bad day for the administration.
