So why the stonewall? According to one former White House official with close ties to the current staff, there’s a sense that Libby deserved his fate—and nobody wants to look like they are defending him. “What you saw was a vice president’s office that was out of control,” said the official, who declined to be named while talking about the case. “I felt that way as somebody inside the White House. I think Karl (Rove) and Ari (Fleischer) weren’t guilty. They went up to the line and didn’t cross it. But the vice president’s office crossed it.”
