Libby indicted - five counts
so says cnn...
"Lewis "Scooter" Libby, Vice President Dick Cheney's chief of staff, was indicted today by a grand jury on one count of obstruction of justice, two counts of making false statements and two counts of perjury in the CIA leak probe. The indictments are the first in a nearly two-year investigation into the public unmasking of an undercover CIA operative." |

Re: Libby indicted - five counts
Two counts each of perjury and making false statements, and one count of obstruction of justice.
EDIT- I see you already edited that into your post. Nevermind! |

Re: Libby indicted - five counts
I wonder why, after 2 years, he can't either indite Rove or let him off the hook. As I understand it, he is keeping the investigation into Rove open, maybe even extending the Grand Jury. Perhaps Rove really is off the hook.

Rove's a scumbag and I believe he'll be indicted eventually. |

Re: Libby indicted - five counts
Indictment available here.
Prediction: plea or pardon (or both). No way this goes to trial, since the WH will not be able to avoid having Cheney testify.

Misread your post, sorry bout that.
Rove's still a scumbag though and saavy has nothing to do with him getting off. Crony-ism and an American public that doesn't care might though. |

Re: Libby indicted - five counts
What I think is interesting in this is that he wasn't charged with anything directly related to slipping Plame's name. The charges center on what he did once the probe started.
So does anyone think that perhaps this verifies what the republicans have been saying all along that no crime was actually committed? |
