Air America Founder Says Fitz "Fumbled" Plame Case

Edited on Sat Oct-29-05 04:50 PM by Cheney Killed Bambi
Air America Founder Sheldon Drobny, who has considerable experience with white collar criminal matters, says Fitz "fumbled" the Plame case:

In most conspiracy cases, one or more of the co-conspirators invariably lie to the FBI or the Grand Jury. That is something that prosecutors face all the time. The idea that Libby alone prevented Fitzgerald from proving the underlying crime is absurd. If Cheney told Libby about Valerie Plame, there was obviously a reason. The idea that Cheney, Libby, Rove and Bush did not talk to each other about the purpose of passing on this information to the press is simply not believable. And there were many ways that Fitzgerald could have proven the conspiracy in spite of Libby's lies. The fact that Libby lied would normally embolden a prosecutor to prove the underlying crime. This was not the case for Fitzgerald.

Fitzmas is looking to me more and more like Fizzlemas.
