New court filings indicate a President Bush connection and, it would seem to me, point to the likelihood of efforts by Democrats to impeach President Bush after the November elections.

Impeachment hearings will occur regardless of whether or not President Bush’s semen stains are found on any of his young underling’s dresses.
But at least the liberal media will deal with this fairly.

Before his indictment, Libby testified to the grand jury investigating the Valerie Plame leak that Cheney told him to pass on the information and that it was Bush who had authorized the leak, the court papers say.
According to the documents, the authorization led to the July 8, 2003, conversation between Libby and New York Times reporter Judith Miller.
