Cheney authorized aide to leak in CIA case: report
Do you remember Bush(whacker)'s vow to fire anyone found to have "leaked" that CIA agents name? Well Vice President Dick Cheney's former aide, Scooter Libby, has testified under oath that "his superiors," which included Chaney, authorized him to disclose classified information to news reporters as "pay back" to diplomat Joe Wilson's charge that the Bush administration twisted intelligence on Iraq's nuclear weapons to justify the 2003 invasion. The name leaked was that of Joe Wilson's wife, Valerie Plame, a CIA operative at the time.
Sen. Edward Kennedy said Vice President Cheney's vindictiveness in defending the misguided war in Iraq is obvious. "These charges, if true, represent a new low in the already sordid case of partisan interests being placed above national security,"
So just how does a President go about firing his Vice President? And IF and (hopefully) when Bush, gets indicted for all his illegal activities I hope Speaker of the House John Dennis Hastert is both ready, and uninvolved in the ever growing Bush "good ol boys" illegal activities. If not, then just two more steps down and we'll have the first black AND female president of the United States, ala the now cancelled TV show
"Commander in Chief."
What all this shows is that either Democrats are far more intelligent and crafty than Republicans or that only Republicans commit crimes. After all when Clinton was president all he did was have sex with an intern. But I'm not buying that Dems. are squeaky clean either.
