But a central claim made by fitzy was that libby was lying cuz he WAS the first to 'leak' it. That being proven false (providing Woodward Already knew and it wasn't libby that told him) What exactly did he "lie" about?
I would offer that this new tidbit (along with others since indictment day by vallale and mitchel) out to be further investigated. I think it will be.....kinda goes to the statement by Fitzy that the investigation was still open.
Novak's source would help things out alot! I wish that would be 'leaked' ;)
Novak is doing some digging along with many other political reporters....HE has a hunch based on this tid bit and that tidbit as to who went to niger....he bounces his Idea off of Miller who likes the juice she hears...cooper is doing essentially the same thing.....it gets around what Novak is kinda onto....many reporters put it together but have no real source to verify it...... Journalists ask questions of Rove, libby (along with many other 'officilas' looking to verify what they already know.....libby asks cheney if she Is CIA as he heard....Rove does this also....
then it all hits papers...well "all" being this little chunk and that little chunk accompanied by MASSIVE amounts of OP ED about what they mean.
I have said before that (I think)there really was no true source. I think Andrea mitchel is being truthful when she said alot of folks knew before novak ever printed what he did WHO valerie was. I would offer that the folks that need charged in this are members of the MSM and not the white house at all. In the end wether charges are filed or not I cannot say, but inthe court of public opinion....MSM will end up holding the ball for this debacle.
This also tells me that Fitz rushed an indictment on Libby.
Amateur hour. This guy is a clown.
