Fitz is saying that Libby is attempting to sabatoge the prosecution against him, by gray-mailing the Justice department. What a freakin' surprise!
Libby is charged with lying to a grand jury, federal investigators and now bunches of e-mails have gone missing from the auto-archive system at the White House, including Vice's office email. The emails that have disappeared were all written and sent during the time in question; May 2003 and early summer.
Shocking, I tell you, just shocking!
Gray-mailing, for those who don't know, is a legal strategy in which the defense asks for truckloads of classified information (like, in this case 200 some-odd, PDBs) The idea is to ask for classified documents that there is no way in hell any administration would turn over, then the defendant can say that there is no way he can get a fair trial, and ask the Judge to dismiss the case.
Libby has hired one John D. Cline, attorney and expert at gray-mail defenses of clients who are charged in national security related cases. Cline denies that he is using graymail, claiming that laws, now, make it harder to use that defense.
Yeah, right, and the moon is made of green cheese and pigs fly.
Come on Fitz; did you honestly believe that Libby and his Rethug Legal-funders would play fair? Getting off on a technicality has worked out well for people like Oliver North.
....and the truth shall set you free.
