WASHINGTON -- The federal grand jury probing the leak of a covert CIA officer's identity has subpoenaed records of Air Force One telephone calls in the week before the officer's name was published in a column in July, according to documents obtained by Newsday.

Also sought in the wide-ranging document requests contained in three grand jury subpoenas to the Executive Office of President George W. Bush are records created in July by the White House Iraq Group, a little-known internal task force established in August 2002 to create a strategy to publicize the threat posed by Saddam Hussein.

And the subpoenas asked for a transcript of a White House spokesman's press briefing in Nigeria, a list of those attending a birthday reception for a former president, and, casting a much wider net than previously reported, records of White House contacts with more than two dozen journalists and news media outlets.

The investigation seeks to determine if anyone violated federal law that prohibits officials with security clearances from intentionally or knowingly disclosing the identity of an undercover agent.

Now class - can we say treasonous offense

Why can't they haul their sorry asses in front of the 9/11 comission? Like, "no, you're coming now, you're talking to us as long as we need you to, and we're going to get this done in the near term, not after the election."

After all, these assholes aren't kings. They work for us and are subject to the same laws as the rest of us.

I know a lot of DUers were unhappy at Pat Fitzgerald's appointment to the investigation, but this is exactly how it was in Illinois when he was working for the indictment on Republican Gov. George Ryan. One long string of subpoenas.

Fitzgerald is a most patient guy, and he's nothing if not diligent.

Laura

ASS!

:kick:

Has been that she was not undercover and of little importance to the CIA. We had some interesting articals here before saying as many as 70 contacts disappeared and or were eliminated

Any one have any links

Maybe in three years or so.
