When Judy Met Scooter



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

Thanks to Josh Marshall for pointing us to the latest from Murray Waas, my new favorite investigative journalist. He has an article at American Prospect about a July 8, 2003 meeting between Judith Miller and Scooter Libby. That was six days before the now infamous Novak column which outed Valerie Plame. Definitely, definitely worth a read. A key paragraph:

The new disclosure that Miller and Libby met on July 8, 2003, raises questions regarding claims by President Bush that he and everyone in his administration have done everything possible to assist Fitzgerald's grand-jury probe. Sources close to the investigation, and private attorneys representing clients embroiled in the federal probe, said that Libby's failure to produce a personal waiver may have played a significant role in Miller’s decision not to testify about her conversations with Libby, including the one on July 8, 2003.
Clearly, Bush and his administration have done everything possible to stonewall the investigation. Scooter and Karl can share the cell next to Miller.
