Scooter Libby Defense Fund plans dinner at home of James Carville
Former Cheney aide plans pricey Libby bash Tuesday

John Byrne
Published: Monday June 19, 2006

Reception to be held at home of Democratic strategist

Conservative political strategist Mary Matalin will host a reception Tuesday night at her home in Alexandria to help augment the defense fund of indicted Cheney aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby according to an invitation read to RAW STORY.

Barbara Comstock, a spokesman for Libby's fund, declined to comment. No one answered the phone at an RSVP line. Libby has been indicted for obstruction of justice and other charges in connection with the CIA leak investigation.

Matalin is married to Democratic strategist James Carville and formerly worked in the Office of the Vice President. It is not known whether Carville will be present at the event. Matalin was also a member of the White House Iraq Group.

2. Oh how cosy
So nice to see everyone in bed together.

Someone needs to tell Carville that Matlins ass isn't worth having to stoop so low.

3. Matalin is one nasty woman
Nearlyas mean and outright full of it as Ann Coulter. I can't see what James Carville sees in her. Yuck.

5. Hopefully, he'll take the kids away on a mini vacation.
They don't need to be mixed up with all those right wingers.

for him to even be with a woman like that shows what kind of poor judgement he has.

8. Carville always put up a watered down attack on on this case - I'm certain
Mary was always PART OF IT, and that Carville was protecting her.

And HE and Begala were the two most prominent Dems on CNN throughout the entire 2004 campaign. Sheesh.

13. Yep, exactly.
She was an active participant in the scandal. I could see it if he were to say he can't be objective, because of his wife's position. But to allow his home to be used for this indicates that he supportsLibby to some degree.

This is why I trust grass-roots level democrats, but question the motives and ethics of many of those who consider themselves the "upper crust." I think they are crust of another type.

12. Is there some way to find out all the contributors to the Libby fund?
I'll bet Marc Rich is one of them.

Carville can go for all I care. I gave up on him a couple of years ago.
