Rockefeller did you "teller?" (Excerpted)
"...several sources are telling me today that some investigators working on the NSA leak probe believe that Senator Jay Rockefeller may have been a little more than "concerned" about NSA.
"In fact, he may just be the leaker of the program to the NY Times, and is now being considered a "significant person of interest" in the probe.
"If this incoming information is correct, it would not be the first time Senator Rockefeller - Vice Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee had been investigated for leaking classified information.
"In early 2005, the CIA asked the Justice Department to look into whether
Democratic Senators Dick Durbin, Jay Rockefeller and Ron Wyden leaked details about a secret "black ops" CIA satellite program in December of 2004.
"That investigation is still on going, but I hear it may be wrapping up in the affirmative."

Sorry . . . I didn't see your post before posting my duplicate link!
So when does Rockefeller get indicted? His letter to Cheney was cited by the NYTimes in their original story. Since only he had a copy of it, he had to have leaked it to the Times prior to their story being published. It is an open and shut case.
And .. don't forget the infamous memos written by Jay's staff - telling how they were going to use the intel info (and their positions on the intel committee) to hoodwink the repubs into giving them what they wanted - an investigation of Bush.
While the dems have continued to hide those memos and their real statement - Pat Roberts (Chairman of the committee) has not forgotten how they mocked him in the memos. I think it was a rude awakening for Pat - but it was necessary. I just wish the rest of the repubs would get the message.
