What deep point am I missing beyond that?

That Libby lied to the GJ. What he told Russert is irrelevant - he could come into the GJ and say "I lied to Russert," and he'd be fine.

But several reporters say they learned of Plame from Libby - Libby says he learened of Plame from reporters, and independent notes indicate that Libby knew of Plame before he talked to reporters.

Only according to the counter testimony of Russert.

But several reporters say they learned of Plame from Libby - Libby says he learened of Plame from reporters, and independent notes indicate that Libby knew of Plame before he talked to reporters.

Libby never denied he told Russert about Plame. He said he told Russert he wasn’t sure about his information because he learned that information from journalists. Russert says he didn’t tell him that.

Where are you getting evidence, independent of what Russert says, that Libby’s statements were inaccurate?

Please show us those notes. When was the first time Libby talked to reporters BTW? These notes must be fascinating; they indicate when Libby first became aware of Plame (an irrelevant fact since she was not a covert agent for nine years prior to "Novak's outing") and the first time Libby spoke to a reporter. (about anything in particular or just in general?)
