Well, It Does Explain A Lot....

Vice President Dick Cheney's top aid, Lewis Libby, was indicted yesterday on five counts. Bush aid Karl Rove was spared for now, though the prosecutor says that the investigation is continuing.

For time immemorial, government officials have fallen back on the standard "Sorry your honor, but I don't recall who said what to whom" defense. Libby, is no exception. According to his attorney, Libby will argue that he's just so darn busy that he can't possibly be expected to remember minute details of individual conversations, especially when they involve such trivial matters as disclosing classified material.

It's good to know that our country is being run by people with advanced cases of Alzheimer's.
