Over at FDL, Jane Hamsher describes Libby’s devolution in the grand jury tapes as a “gradually dawning realization under Patrick Fitzgerald's relentless and dogged questioning that he was in fact screwed.”

 Positively giddy over the grand jury tapes, BooMan highlights a revelation about the UN inspections spin and further evidence that Plame-related misconduct may have extended beyond the OVP to leave an indelible stain on Bush’s hands as well.

Jeralyn offers some background and analysis on Tim Russert, the final prosecutorial witness and Fitzgerald’s last hope to end on a high note.

Posting at The Huffington Post, Marcy Wheeler explores the conundrum of Cheney’s testimony through the evolution of his talking points.

From the Desk of Patrick Fitzgerald heaps praise on – well, Patrick Fitzgerald and, subpoena power aside, notes that it was Fitzgerald and not the media who has done the most to ferret out the details of this Washington scandal.

Finally, I would like to extend a hearty welcome to Rev. Brian Donner of The Uncooperative Blogger who will be my doppelganger of sorts in presenting conservative blog round-ups for the remainder of the trial.
