More specifically, (allegedly) lying to investigators (he is free to lie his ass off to reporters, before, during and after) about information that is material to figuring out the source of information published in the Novak column.
What is puzzling though, is that the WH could have made the same argument raised by 36 news organizations, and it (the WH) could have done so with knowledge of the facts. But it didn't. Why not? Why did the WH permit the investigation when it knew beyond any doubt whatsoever that 50 USC 421 had not been violated, even if the WH was the source. Was it fear of political embarrassment? If so, it was silly, because what it has now is embarrassment delayed and magnified.
C whats Section 422? You know?
Those are good questions...and from the talk show hosts and pundits that I trust, one of their main questions is...
why would Libby allegedly tell a different story to the GJ, than the notes HE turned over to them??? and, why did he keep the notes to begin with?
This whole thing is confusing...and there could be a personal reason for his involvement...but, I want there to be a jury trial...and I want the defense attorney to put as many of the Washington "elites" on the stand that he can...
I will supply the popcorn!
