NY Daily News set to report Tuesday/Rawstory
The New York Daily News is set to report in Tuesday editions that a well-placed source interviewed by the newspaper believes a senior White House official has flipped and may be helping the prosecutor in the case, RAW STORY has learned.

The Daily News will reveal that a top source believes that based on the questioning of Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald and his other contacts with the investigation, someone in the White House has turned.

All eyes are on Dick Cheney, the News says, as the investigation wraps up.
The piece follows on the heels of on a story by Bloomberg News and an article by RAW STORY last week confirming that the prosecutor is probing the Vice President.

Also under a microscope is the White House Iraq Group, an ad-hoc strategy group started by Bush chief of staff Andrew Card aimed at selling the war in Iraq.

12. Rove brews the kool-aid for everybody else.

I doubt that it's Rove. But may be.

Senior official almost has to be Rove, Libby or Hadley. A crucial thing about this is that these three guys would be very loyal. Remember, this is a White House that values loyalty above all. If one of these guys is ratting out, it is *NOT* to rat out middle-level staffers. No. These guys rat out only because they are over their heads in deep shit that goes all the way to the top.

Scenerios

Hadley rats out Rice-a-Phoney.
Libby rats out Crashcart.
Rove could rat out anybody.
Any way you look at it, Chimpy may be toast.

14. That's what I thought
when I saw "senior White House official". He seems the only one that would make sense.

7. This is a key paragraph.
Edited on Mon Oct-17-05 09:23 PM by Pirate Smile
"Two officials close to Fitzgerald told RAW STORY they have seen documents obtained from the White House Iraq Group which state that Cheney was present at several of the group's meetings. They say Cheney personally discussed with individuals in attendance at least two interviews in May and June of 2003 Wilson gave to New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof and Washington Post reporter Walter Pincus, in which he claimed the administration “twisted” prewar intelligence and what the response from the administration should be."

10. The war within the White House is on.
There is no way this info gets out without someone on the inside leaking it. It's not Fitzgerald. It has to be an attorney...most likely, the attorney for the leaker.

Rove, anyone?
