FITZGERALD BACKPEDALS

Boy...it sure seems like Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald's case against Scooter Libby continues to fall apart. Fitzgerald had stated, with much fanfare, that Vice President Dick Cheney (at President Bush's urging) told Scooter Libby to leak intelligence to the New York Times about Iraq. This caused quite an uproar in the media. Except now, Fitzgerald says that's not true.

Believe it or not, Fitzgerald filed a new document with the judge in the Libby case correcting the matter. It turns out that what the media was reporting about what Libby was told to feed to the New York Times was false. Oops.

Now..follow the mainstream media on this one. The same press that reported that Cheney and Bush told Libby to leak the information aren't saying a word about this one. The record in court is being corrected, but not in the court of public opinion.

Sure looks like this trial is going nowhere fast.
