New WP Rovegate Story: THE BIG REVELATION on THE Memo [View All]

In all the threads I'm seeing on this story it seems not many are catching the BIG revelation. It's the last paragraph:

--snip--

"People familiar with this part of the probe provided new details about the memo, including that it was then-Deputy Secretary of State Richard L. Armitage who requested it the day Wilson went public and asked that a copy be sent to then-Secretary of State Colin L. Powell to take with him on a trip to Africa the next day. Bush and several top aides were on that trip. Carl W. Ford Jr., who was director of the Bureau of Intelligence and Research at the time and who supervised the original production of the memo, has appeared before the grand jury, a former State Department official said."

Now this may be disinfo to throw the blame Armitage's way, or it may be true. However, the implications of either of those scenarios are HUGE. Armitage doesn't like these guys and this would almost certainly indicate that Armitage has testified before the Grand Jury. Armitage is a guy who would know many things, and it seems he does not like these scumbags, not one bit. He would NOT lie for them and I do believe he would do much to see them brought down.

For more background and terrific info on Armitage's role in the admin and his frame of mind, please read H2O Man's terrific post from the other day here:
