Bad Day for Bush, Cheney, Frist, Hastert
The White House just crumbled. Murray Waas has blown away the foundation.
Vice President Dick Cheney’s former chief of staff, I. Lewis (Scooter) Libby, testified to a federal grand jury that he had been "authorized" by Cheney and other White House "superiors" in the summer of 2003 to disclose classified information to journalists to defend the Bush administration’s use of prewar intelligence in making the case to go to war with Iraq, according to attorneys familiar with the matter, and to court records.
Libby specifically claimed that in one instance he had been authorized to divulge portions of a then-still highly classified National Intelligence Estimate regarding Saddam Hussein’s purported efforts to develop nuclear weapons, according to correspondence recently filed in federal court by special prosecutor Patrick J. Fitzgerald.
Now, let’s see…“other White House ‘superiors.’” Well, Dick Cheney can’t be one of those and a simple process of elimination converts the unnamed to known.
Today is not a very good for the four top Republicans (Bush, Cheney, Hastert, Frist). Speaker of the House Hastert and Senate Majority Leader Fritz, acting on their own and without the knowledge of others, have been slipping in legislation at the bottom of proposed bills, which have now become law.
