Sweet Judy Blew Lies, Or, Don't play poker with Patrick Fitzgerald
No blogwhoring here: I don't know the person who penned this eye-opening analysis of what probably went on behind the scenes between Miller and Fitzgerald, and how it led to her "discovering" her June 2003 notes. In short, don't even think about perjuring yourself with this man. Last Hurrah contributor empty wheel puts together the pieces based on news reports and the "leaked" letters from Scooter and Fitzgerald, and mock-dramatizes it:
Just long enough after Judy finished, after she had gone home, made a martini, gloated with Sulzberger about how many concessions she had gotten, hugged her dog, Fitz contacted Judy and said, "Um, there's one little detail you seem to have forgotten. Well, let's make that one gigantic detail. Oh, and is Art there? Can I talk to him? Because that little--I mean gigantic--detail affects the testimony he gave us as well. What's that? You'd like to add some to your testimony. Well, do you have anything concrete to give me? Such as your notes from June. Yeah, that's right, your notes detailing ALL of your sources. Yeah, I understand we agreed you could limit your testimony to your conversations with Libby about Plame. But you promised you would tell the truth, remember? And ... well ... you didn't do that."
"Hey!!!" Judy says. "Wouldn't you know it, I just remembered about some notes I've got shoved into an old suitcase upstairs!!"
