Cheney Notes Surface in Fitzgerald Probe


Oh yeah, the great unraveling is unstoppable now! This bunch of thugs is going down.

Cheney Notes Surface in Fitzgerald Probe - Newsweek National News - MSNBC.com: "In the margins of the op-ed, Cheney jotted out a series of questions that seemed to challenge many of Wilson's assertions as well as the legitimacy of his CIA sponsored trip to Africa: 'Have they done this sort of thing before? Send an Amb. [sic] to answer a question? Do we ordinarily send people out pro bono to work for us? Or did his wife send him on a junket?'

It is extremely rare, if not unprecedented, for Cheney's own notes to be made public. The notes, apparently obtained as a result of a grand jury subpoena, would appear to make Cheney an even more central witness than had been previously thought in the criminal probe. Fitzgerald's prosecution has created continued problems for the White House. Karl Rove, the President Bush's chief political advisor, recently made his fifth grand jury appearance in the case and remains under scrutiny while Fitzgerald weighs whether to file criminal charges against him. For now, Libby is the only figure charged in the case."
