Excerpt: from one of the reviews

###

The best part of Triple Cross is the way Lance weaves together the different strands of the 9/11 story and enhances them with his own original reporting on each. For example, the book quotes from numerous interviews Lance conducted with Tony Shaffer, Curt Weldon, and other members of the Able Danger team. While not a full history of Able Danger, it has by far the most complete version in any book published to date.

~~~

I’ll always be suspicious of what went on with Able Danger.

Fitz is a hack. He is worried about the truth coming out.

Don't worry Pat. Chuck Shummer will help you out with
a good legal team like he did with Plame and Wilson.

What goes around...

Is this the Fitz that went in front of national TV and knowingly, falsely, accused Scooter Libby of committing a crime and then refused to indict him for it?

I’ll believe Lance before I would believe the dishonorable and dishonest Fitz.

Let him sue! That will double their sales and he will get nothing.

Power corrupts. Fitzgerald is an example. His plans for a future in politics are suddenly threatened by a book. Let the chips fall where they may.

Victoria Toensing picked Fitzgerald apart in the Washington Post:

I have no idea if this book is worth the paper it's written on, and frankly I don't care. Nor do I really care for Fitzgerald, so if he's po'd, that somehow pleases me.

But, I think it is interesting from the standpoint of having a sitting US Attorney publicly threaten to sue a private company, civilly. I don't know if this isn't some kind of precedent.

Hey Patrick, I’ll bet you Scooter Libby wishes that it was only a book that disparaged him. At least your freedom, family and career wasn’t taken from you.

Fitzgerald ruined his reputation in the Plame Affaire. He know from the get-go that Richard Armitage was the source for the leak, but he put Scooter Libby through hell with his prosecution. Bush was a putz for not clearing Libby. And Libby wasn't the only one Fitzgerald put through hell.

What comes around, goes around.
