The Traitors - Scooter, Karl and Uncle Dick
Scooter Libby was indicted today on obstructing justice and perjury in the investigation of leaks to the media of a CIA agent's identity, not for treason.
Karl Rove is still under investigation.
What about Dick Cheney?
By all accounts, the Vice President told Libby that former Amassador Joseph Wilson's wife was an agent. Cheney would be in a position to know this kind of infomation as Vice President.
So the question is, why wasn't it illegal to disclose this agent's identity to Mr. Libby? Did he really have a "need to know" as part of his job responsibilities and security clearances.
Other than for political revenge against Ambassador Wilson, what was the national security reason for the VP to come know this bit of CIA personnel information?
The three of them hatched this thing up, the of them should be held accountable to the people of the United States.
Oh and the other untouchable is Robert Novak. They don't call him the "Prince of Darkness" for nothing.
