Remember the Scooter Libby perjury investigation, when Cheney and Bush both dedlined to be interviewed under oath for fear of incriminating themselves? i
I’s coming back to bite them on the ass, acording to Emptywheel at Firedoglake
“Anything conducted in front of the grand jury is protected by grand jury secrecy; anything before that (like early FBI interviews) or not conducted before the grand jury (like Dick and Bush’s interviews in June 2004, after both had lawyered up) is “fair game.” There’s a delicious irony in this last bit, since it means that the deference Fitz showed to Bush and Dick–by letting them avoid the stress of a grand jury appearance–is precisely what would make their interview transcripts accessible here.”
Heh, heh, heh.
