ABCNEWS TELLS WHITE HOUSE OF 'INDICTMENT' Tue Oct 25 2005 19:08:02 ET
"We have double sourced that the vice president's chief of staff has been indicted," a reporter for ABCNEWS claimed to a White House press spokesman this afternoon.
The White House refused to comment on the claim. The network said they didn't need comment, they were preparing to run with the development on this evening's network news broadcast, sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.
ABCNEWS claimed to the White House that it had double sourced how an indictment against vice presidential chief of staff I. Lewis Libby was set.
A senior White House source quickly determined ABC was bluffing; the report did not run on the East coast feed of the program.
Developing...
UPDATE
ABC NEWS spokesman Jeff Schneider tells the DRUDGE REPORT: "There is nothing at all true about us having double sourced anything" regarding indictments.
More from Drudge:
CBS JOHN ROBERTS: Lawyers familiar with the case think Wednesday is when special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald will make known his decision, and that there will be indictments. Supporters say Rove and the vice presidents chief of staff, Scooter Libby, are in legal jeopardy...
Another update from Drudge:
Indictments in CIA leak case about to be handed down
Gee, Mr. FBI man, everybody around here
just calls him good ol' Mr. Wilson.
Margaret and Joey say that his wife
works undercover for the CIA
I think it's a different neighbor
But don't quote me on that .. my head is still spinning trying to keep up with this all
FOFL!
I have no idea
Remember the media was saying this same BS last week
Well, still, it sounds like she was telling different stories.
"Never put anyone named "Scooter" in a powerful position."
Amen to that, brother! Am I royally sick of these Ivy League prepsters.
I think yes.
my last post was meant for you
ROFL!!!!!
Yes. I forgot to include that clarifying fact.
So...Wednesday's going to be a hot news day, a 'Day in the Sun' for libs. Merlot on the deck in Marin, Casual imbibtion with good friends in earth shoes, and Watching the TV for Bush's crucifixion.
I think tomorrow will be a memorable day.
FReepers should be alert and, at worst, online---at best, in the street gathering news
"short of something dramatic occurring"
On to Damascus and Tehran!
Being the detailed, intrepid and inquiring newshound that he and all the rest of the hacks in the LSM are, Tucker had no follow up question.
I don't know if it has been Levin, or Rush...that has been describing the Grand Jury...
I can't remember the exact number, but a the largest percentage of the jurors are black (I don't mean anything by stating this..just repeating)...
Also, today I heard that only a percentage have to vote for indictments...it doesn't have to be unanimous..
And, the same that was on hear a second ago...about the fear that if they wait until Friday...there wouldn't be a quorum...
BTW...what do you think would happen to Chrissy if he goes for an extension???? LOL
Birds of a feather, flock together!
I hope the FBI is not limiting their questioning to the Wilson/ Plame neighbors as the sole determinant of whether her occupation was known.
It's not the neighbors, but, the friends that know the true story.
Fitzgerald should get a subpoena for their Christmas card list to find out who their friends and relatives are and put all of them under oath.
Put her girl friends and hair dresser under oath.
I find it laughable that Mandy Grunwald and Hillary Clinton didn't know Plame or what she did.
Plame went to the White House for social events. If Fitzgerald wants to be thorough he should subpoena Bill Clinton- I'm sure he asked his detail to get her number.
I just hope another Mohammed Atta isn't plotting domestically, while agents are being forced to go pssst to the Wilson's neighbors.
Case against aides (doesn't have leg to stand on. (Valerie Plame case) (MUST READ: NO CRIME)
LOL.
