Cheney & Libby Withheld Intel From Senate
Kept Crucial Documents From Senate Panel Looking into Iraq Intelligence Failures
Read about it at the National Journal. Holy crap. This is big. [via Raw Story]
MORE: "Among the White House materials withheld from the committee were Libby-authored passages in drafts of a speech that then-Secretary of State Colin L. Powell delivered to the United Nations in February 2003 to argue the Bush administration's case for war with Iraq, according to congressional and administration sources ... [and] intelligence data that Cheney's office - and Libby in particular - pushed to be included in Powell's speech, the sources said."
THE JUICIEST BIT: "Had the withheld information been turned over, according to administration and congressional sources, it likely would have shifted a portion of the blame away from the intelligence agencies to the Bush administration as to who was responsible for the erroneous information being presented to the American public, Congress, and the international community."

Awesome picture of Cheney! I wonder how many dead Iraqi children he ate for lunch?

He does eat kids for breakfast. I just know it. How else does he manage to keep himself alive??
Evil shithead. I just read the National Journal article. Obviously, the extent of his evil is beyond what we even imagined. Of coruse, I'm not a bit surprised...

Sad that my first thought was, "I'm not surprised, this is business as usual with this bunch." We should not be living like this. And by the way, what is up with Evil dude's upper lip? I am convinced he is pure evil, and the proof is in the photo.

Could THIS be what Fitzgerald is going to continue his investigation for?

i think that that bush should burn in hell for the pain and anguist he has caused many friends and family . i think that the sorry sob should bring our men and women back home to thier family and friends , and get them out of harms way . i also think that we should drop him over iraq and feed him to the dogs .
