Raw Story also reported, before Libby was indicted, that they had "for sure" sorces that there would be 22 indictments. They have no credibility.

No matter who it was, the fact that they mentioned it is passing to Woodward is not criminal.

RAW STORY is the moonbat "news" outlet that kept "breaking news" that Fitzgerald would bring Bush down.

I am not sure- according to Woodward, he spoke to 3 WH officials, he spoke to current and former WH officials. Then he named two of the three officials- Libby and Card- both of which he said did not give him the name. Both of which are current WH employees.(Libby only recently fired) So it has to be someone that is a former employee of the WH. Hadley is a current employee- not a former employee.

So who is the former employee? Powell? Perhaps that idiot shooting off his mouth right now- Powell's lackey! I cannot remember his name though???????

They use the nutty Larry Johnson for their source. Larry was predicting Hadley the last time too.

"Perhaps that idiot shooting off his mouth right now- Powell's lackey"

That would be Colonel Lawrence (Larry) Wilkerson. Wilkerson has been doing the circuit talking about how Bush misled the nation, so it doesn't seem likely that it's him.

Unless Woodward was lying, his source is a Former Administration Official--and it wasn't Libby--which leaves out Rove, Hadley, Cheney or anyone else Raw Story or the fever swamps throw out..

Exactly! It was not criminal to pass this NON-classified info to Woodward or anyone. If it had been, Libby would have been indicted for that crime.
Politically, it might be a bit dicey, but not legally. ..Not that it SHOULD make any difference, but you know that the Dems will make a bit deal about this non-story.

Very interesting...I didn't hear the part about 2 current WH people and one FORMER. If it WERE Wilkerson, it would make sense why he wouldn't want to be outed as the source. Coming clean would hurt his credibility and help Bush. If it IS Wilkerson, I don't think we'll know until after the election.
