Iraq Findings Leaked by Cheney's Aide Were Disputed

Thanks for posting this NYTimes piece from this morning's paper. I had planned to do so later today.

It's the clearest recounting yet of what was happening within the Bush administration on the pr of the wmd issues in June and July of 03 and the various ways that resulted in Libby's conversation with Miller.

Bush will pay another price, hard to tell how heavy, for the clear hypocricy of his statements in 03 about finding the person who did the leaking. And, of course, he now has no credibility on the "punishing leakers" point which serves as the basis for going after Risen, Priest, and other journalists.
