Comments:

I'll have to work on some prison allusions for Bolton, Libby, Rove, and others. Probably need to contain something about "Cheneyed" by fellow neoconvicts.

Roveing: meandering, at a run, over to the Special Prosecutor's office in order to cut a deal by dropping a colleague deep in the brown smelly stuff.

Scootered: received a present that was not as good as you expected. As in "Fitzmas came and all I got was this lousy scooter."
