For Grand Jury It's Miller Time

NY Times reporter Judith Miller got out of jail today after agreeing to testify before the grand jury investigation Valerie Plame's outing.

Ms. Miller was freed after spending more than 12 weeks in jail, during which she refused to cooperate with the criminal inquiry. Her decision to testify came after she obtained what she described as a waiver offered "voluntarily and personally" by a source who said she was no longer bound by any pledge of confidentiality she had made to him. She said the source had made clear that he genuinely wanted her to testify.

Supposedly this is the last piece of the puzzle special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald needs. It will be a riot if he doesn't charge anyone. Miller and Time's Matt Cooper will be steamed. All hell will break lose at Daily Kos, and someone wacko Lefty will claim Karl Rove bribed Fitzgerald with Halibruton money.

John Hindrocker wants attention paid on "one of the great scoundrels of recent times," Joe Wilson.
