9. Why would it be legal for Cheney to pass
classified info to Libby? For that matter it wasn't legal for Tenant to give it to Cheney. Top secret info cannot be passed to anyone with a top secret clearance. >Bold "You must have a need to know."<Bold There is no conceivable excuse for giving her name etc to Cheney. His only need to know was to smear Plame. That isn't legal. It doesn't matter who the Veep is.
