• Cheney Now Remembers CIA-Related Information!!

  
  Emptywheel — Authority: 712
  I’m not so much surprised that Cheney, once again, used a public speaking opportunity to bitch and moan that Eric Holder is nodding briefly (but very ambivalently) toward the requirement to investigate the use of torture. Cheney, speaking to the Economic Club of Southwest Michigan, was harshest when addressing ...

• WaPo, I Hate to Say I Told You So…

  
  Emptywheel — Authority: 712
  Back when DOJ first submitted its motion to hide a bunch of information from Dick Cheney’s interview, I did a post calling out the Washington Post for what appeared to be factually incorrect reporting. The Wa Pay2PlayPo’s Jeffrey Smith is usually a much better reporter than this . In his report on ...

• Isikoff Doubles Down on His Anonymous Leak from Cheney’s Lawyer

  
  Emptywheel — Authority: 712
  Michael Isikoff’s coverage of Dick Cheney’s interview (h/t Leen) seems designed as much to defend his bad reporting on the CIA Leak case as to report the content of the interview itself. It’s not that I expected Isikoff to point out that Cheney refused to say things to Fitzgerald that Cheney’s own lawyer ...

• Cheney’s Betrayal Made an IIPA Charge for Libby Possible

  
  Emptywheel — Authority: 712
  Yesterday, I showed the many ways that Dick Cheney hung his purportedly valued aide, Scooter Libby, out to dry in his interview with Patrick Fitzgerald. But I didn’t do a very good job of explaining the consequences of that action from Cheney. Luckily, perris did that for me . As a reminder, I’ve shown ...

• Hung Out to Dry: One Former VP Chief of Staff

  
  Emptywheel — Authority: 712
  If I were Scooter Libby right now, I’d be seething. I’d be utterly disgusted with the way Dick Cheney hung me out to dry, over and over and over, in his interview with Fitzgerald. Cheney denies any knowledge of issues he and Libby worked on together repeatedly and he denies that his own orders and instructions ...

  At-Largely — Authority: 587
  I am busy - and will be for days - pouring over the documents released to CREW (via FOIA) in the Plame leak case. The site seems to be down at the moment, but when it is back up, that URL should... [Want to read the whole piece? Visit atlargely.com for full links, other content, and more]

• Why Did Terry O’Donnell Tell Michael Isikoff What Cheney Refused to Tell Fitzgerald?

  
  Emptywheel — Authority: 712
  It’s time, I think, to compare what Terry O’Donnell told Michael Isikoff about the declassification of what was purported to be the NIE with what Dick Cheney said to Patrick Fitzgerald. First, here’s how Cheney responded to Fitzgerald when asked about insta-declassification. When asked if he ever advised ...

• The Email Question

  
  Emptywheel — Authority: 712
  There’s not much different between the FBI Agent notes and the interview report itself. But here’s one detail worth noting. On page 19, the FBI Agent records the following answer: doesn’t work on e-mail in office or home It’s not surprising that Fitz asked this question, per se. After all, he asked ...

• Friday Dumparama

  
  Fore Left! — Authority: 471
  It was certainly a good day for dumping. Documents, that is. Two items hit the late news wires--the released White House visitor logs and the Cheney FBI interview (about Valerie Plame). Oh, and of course that other trivial thing earlier in the day. Feel free to question the timing.The logs are interesting but ...

• Bush’s July 7, 2003 Discussion about Wilson

  
  Emptywheel — Authority: 712
  One thing DOJ redacted in this document –the most highly protected part of the document–was Cheney relaying what was said about Joe Wilson at a meeting with Bush, probably on July 7, 2003. When Fitzgerald asked Cheney whether he ever spoke about Wilson with Condi Rice, Andy Card, and Karl Rove, Cheney answered ...

• The Taxpayers Paid Dick Cheney’s Personal Defense Attorney to Obstruct Any Inquiries Into His Crimes

  Okay, prepare for the onslaught of weeds. He’s one that made me vomit, from the very beginning of the Cheney interview report . Vice President Cheney was represented by Terrence O’Donnell and Emmet T. Flood of the law firm of Williams and Connolly… Cheney was formally represented not only by Terry ...

• Cheney Refused to Release the Journalists

  
  Emptywheel — Authority: 712
  There is a lot in Cheney’s interview report –we’ll have a busy weekend. But for the moment, let’s start with this bit: After the Vice President again mentioned that he was pressed for time, two separate requests were made to Vice President Cheney in an effort to assist the DOJ/FBI investigation into this ...
