Has Cheney confirmed that he was given a copy of this letter? The letter seems very self serving.
Interesting that it was hand written, so the date can not be confirmed.
Also, I hope the White House pulls out all stops to identify this leaker.
Read the letter carefully. The "Senator" says he didn't feel competent to judge the program. After serving on the Intelligence Committee for how many years? He couldn't ask for a special discussion with the committee's legal counsel? He couldn't ask for a briefing by the NSA's counsel (or I believe they have an IG)? He didn't discuss his objections with the chairman?
This is an failure to live up to his duties. Apparently Senators want oversight, but don't really want to share responsibility.

I had the same thought.
