PDB = Particularly Dumb Bush

Political Parrhesia quotes a story from MSNBC about how members of the 9/11 commission are considering issuing a subpoena to the White House to force them to cooperate with document requests for the Presidential Daily Briefs (PDB's). Must be something pretty juicy 'ol Bushco doesn't want us to see. I say do it.

And in a sign that the investigation into the outing of CIA operative Valerie Plame is heating up, the Times reports about the investigators dragging Bush aides into the Grand Jury this week, including the press secretary, Scott McClellan. The most buzz seems to be around I. Lewis Libby, Cheney's chief of staff. TPM talked about this several days ago, before it hit the mainstream press.

And in case you missed it, Calpundit has pulled off a grand feat of reporting and potentially broken the Bush AWOL story wide open with an analysis of some newly FOIA'd military records.

I've only been doing this blog thing for a short time, and when I started writing one I started reading others as well. I must say I've been amazed at the level of reporting being offered on some of the well-known blogs, like Talking Points Memo, Eschaton, and now Calpundit. These people are doing real reporting and breaking stories well before the mainstream press picks them up.
