Queen of the Jailhouse
Jailhouse Judy:
A U.S. judge ordered New York Times reporter Judith Miller to jail Wednesday for refusing to divulge her source in the investigation of the leak of an undercover CIA officer's name.
"There is still a realistic possibility that confinement might cause her to testify," U.S. District Judge Thomas Hogan said. Miller stood up, hugged her lawyer and was escorted from the courtroom.
Earlier, Time magazine reporter Matthew Cooper, in an about-face, told Hogan that he would now cooperate with a federal prosecutor's investigation into the leak of the identity of CIA operative Valerie Plame because his source gave him specific authority to discuss their conversation. "I am prepared to testify. I will comply" with the court's order, Cooper said.
This allows Miller to be really play up the First Amendment Martyr angle, but we're not buying. It's interesting that Miller's source didn't give her the same call that Cooper got.
Regardless,I'm sure the other inmates won't be amused when she's hollering "I was fucking right!" through the bars all night long.
In her honor, we offer up Aimee Mann's King of the Jailhouse:
The king of the jailhouse And the queen of the road Think sharing the burden will lighten the load So they pack up their troubles In an old Cadillac That's her in the mirror, asleep in the back
Baby, there's something wrong with me Baby, there's something wrong with me Baby, there's something wrong with me That I can't see That I can't see
And they don't give the answers At the end of the test So you can't simply stand there and hope for the best So wake me up at the border When we reach Mexico I'll tell you a secret I don't even know
Baby, there's something wrong with me Baby, there's something wrong with me Baby, there's something wrong with me That I can't see That I can't see
Honey, I don't wanna turn around And go back there – do you? I think you know something I don't know That I need to
Baby, there's something wrong with me Baby, there's something wrong with me Baby, there's something wrong with me That I can't see That I can't see That I can't see
