Many apologies for the belated posting - my surgical recovery time has been longer than expected. Pain meds and blogging make poor lovers. Here is the roundup from last Friday:

Posting at My Left Wing, Josh Langdon isn’t buying into the blog-o-rumors – including from many on the left – that Fitzgerald’s investigation will end with the Libby verdict.

After finally graduating into the courtroom, emptywheel shares some impressions of the respective moods of Team Libby and Team USA.

Also at FDL, Scarecrow explores Plame’s role in this trial amidst recent, possibly irresponsible, editorializing from the mainstream media.

Shifting over to The Next Hurrah, emptywheel compiles a chronological update to her original post on Indicting Dick.

Jeff Lomonaco explores the question of whether Fitzgerald is using his closing, in part, to legitimate the idea that Cheney is indictable.

Finally, BooMan finds himself salivating over the big fish fry to come.
