		<description>David,

If you visit today, after reading the law about criminal conspiracy regarding campaign funds took effect in 2003 and DeLay&#039;s actions took place in 2002, does that mean Ronnie Earle was guilty of trying to use &lt;i&gt;ex post facto&lt;/i&gt; on DeLay and, if so, could anything happen to Earle for doing that?

Thanks.</description>

		<description>I agree and that appeals court decision will be a most interesting one. 

I hope if they decided against Libby the President will commute the sentence and allow the judicial process to play out.

I have often wondered how Richard Armitage lives with himself having withheld, even from the President the fact that he was the first to name Valerie Plame.  Makes one wonder about both his and Colin Powells departure from the State Department.</description>

		<description>This brings the Libby case to my mind.  We know Fitz lied or at least misled the appeals panel hearing Libby&#039;s appeal by implicating Judith Miller and having her jailed when she had no information to provide.  

I wonder what the appeals court will decide now when they look at the facts of the case and see Fitz knew before the investigation who the leaker was and did not indict him because apparently it wasn&#039;t a crime.  So why go on with an expensive investigation when you know who committed the crime?

It seems Fitz belongs in the rogue prosecutor category along with Earle and Nifong.</description>
