Another Bad Day for Republicans

More bad news for Republicans today. AP reports that Frist accumulated stock outside of the blind trusts. According to AP, “ethics experts say a partnership arrangement shown in documents obtained by The Associated Press raises serious doubts about whether the senator truly avoided a conflict.”

National Journal reports that Scooter Libby did not tell the grand jury about a key conservation he had with New York Times reporter Judith Miller in June 2003 about Valerie Plame. “Special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald apparently learned about the June 23 conversation for the first time just days ago, after attorneys for Miller and The New York Times informed prosecutors that Miller had discovered a set of notes on the conversation.”
