and I take it back, I AM shocked. Shocked by the stupidity, as well as the immorality. According to Fitz, Libby destroyed a Cheney memo on the subject just days before his first FBI interview, and then claimed that he'd first learned of Plame's identity from Tim Russert.
This is exactly how Martha Stewart wound up in the slammer. She claimed she didn't remember what her broker had told her, but it turned out she had attempted to alter her phone logs just a day or two before she was interviewed by federal investigators.

may be there with him. Think Nancy will issue pardons?
OK, I can dream can't I?
When "stupidity" suffices, why search for any other reason?

I've heard that "CHEE-nee" is the correct pronunciation of the Veep's last name, the one used in Wyoming.
"CHAY-nee" is a DC invention (and IMO, an improvement).

is throwing Rove and by implication Bush under the bus. I doubt that this would be the route they would have chosen if Libby expects a pardon.

From the msnbc.com story on this:
Fitzgerald also alleged that Libby in September 2003 "wiped out" a Cheney note just before Libby's first FBI interview when he said he learned about Wilson and his wife, CIA operative Valerie Plame, from reporters, not the vice president. It was not clear if Fitzgerald meant that an attempt was made to destroy the note or that Libby had forgotten about it. In any case, the note was recovered and is part of the evidence.

he deleted it. My bet is that it was an email, Libby deleted it, which would mean that the initial send date AND the delete date were there.
Bet they're using Outlook - you can delete stuff in Outlook, and it still hangs around for a while.
Sometimes a LONG while, if you don't know what you're doing. And my take is that this WH isn't the most computer literate in the world.
