A Lady's Ruminations

I'm also a usually quiet, reserved Lady, who enjoys books, tea, baking, and movies! I spend most of my time reading one of my favorite books or wishing I was reading my favorite books. My Grand Passion is history, particularly the Regency Period in England, when Jane Austen wrote, Lord Nelson defeated the French Fleet at Trafalgar, the Duke of Wellington defeated Napoleon, and men were Gentlemen and women Ladies. I cherish the thought of being a Lady and love manners, being proper, and having proper tea. My favorite tea is Twinings, especially Earl Grey or Prince of Wales. My specialty to make is Scones with Devon Cream. I am a Catholic and a Conservative.

Innocent Until Proven Guilty

If the investigation was supposed to focus on who, if anyone, leaked Valerie Plame's name as a CIA Operative (whether or not she was actually "undercover" is still in doubt and ought to have been a major part of the investigation), then why is no one being charged with revealing classified information?

These charges against Lewis "Scooter" Libby are ridiculous.

First of all, was there even a crime committed? There can't be a cover-up without an actual crime, can there?

AP story here. Keep in mind it is the AP's story, so it will be biased toward the Left, obviously.

And as the President said, "In our system, each individual is presumed innocent and entitled to due process and a fair trial."
