The White House lied about investigating the CIA leak.
Dr. James Knodell, director of the Office of Security at the White House, told a congressional committee today that he was aware of no internal investigation or report into the leak of covert CIA agent Valerie Plame.
The White House had first opposed Knodell testifying but after a threat of a subpoena from the committee yesterday he was allowed to appear today.
Knodell said that he had started at the White House in August 2004, a year after the leak, but his records show no evidence of a probe or report there: “I have no knowledge of any investigation in my office,” he said.
Rep. Waxman recalled that President Bush had promised a full internal probe. Knodell repeated that no probe took place, as far as he knew, and was not happening today.
Didn’t Clinton get impeached for “breaching the public trust” because he lied about some hummers?
Isn’t Bush “breaching the public trust” when he lied about “getting to the bottom” of this leak?
Just what does this president have to do to get impeached?
Except that the leak came from State (Armitage), not the White House.
A pretty important point, don’t you think? Waxman didn’t.
Look at that SaveFarris. Still hanging on to his delusions.
