the entire GJ was a perjury trap - but only for Libby and Rove.

You are exactly correct, there are some ruthless people in DC.

Paybacks from Rove and Libby will be a bitch.

It appears to have been a perjury trap, paticulary if Fitz knew then who did leak, and whether the leak the leak was illegal, which it was not. Of course, any private citizen would have taken the 5th in this context, due to that concern, per his lawyer's advice, which is always the advice in this situation.

But Scooter was not a private citizen, and could not do that, and thus needed more subtle legal advice, about testifying that he did recall precisely who said what to whom, and perhaps if the deposer would tell him what someone else said he said, that might refresh his recollection, and absent that, what someone else said might well be perhaps accurate, with his recollection refreshed, Otherwise, it would be inappropriate for him to speculate as to his recall, as to the precise interplay of the subject conversations. Do you get my drift?
