OBSESSION OF CHENEY makes Scooter Libby compulsively watch Joe Wilson on television [story]

Vice President Dick Cheney's chief of staff was so angry about the public statements of former Ambassador Joseph C. Wilson IV, a Bush administration critic married to an undercover CIA officer, that he monitored all of Wilson's television appearances and urged the White House to mount an aggressive public campaign against him, former aides say.

Those efforts by the chief of staff, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, began shortly after Wilson went public with his criticisms in 2003. But they continued into last year — well after the Justice Department began an investigation in September 2003, into whether administration officials had illegally disclosed the CIA operative's identity, say former White House aides.

FORMER WHITE HOUSE aide sounds like Ari Fleischer or Mary Matalin possibly covering a butt cheek or two.  How many “former” White House aides are out there?

SCOOTER ISN’T WATCHING as much television as Nixon, who watched all the networks lined up against him on a bank of television screens lined up on a wall.  Maybe the ghost of Nixon, Dick is with the chief of staff of Cheney, Dick there even now plotting ways to dick the enemies on the list.  Is this a bad case of Obsessive Compulsive Disorder or Obsessive Compulsive Destruction?

Sukabi is not the first nor the last to drive over Libby.

UPDATE: If Scooter Libby can't get enough of the news on the investigation on television, Dan Froomkin has um a reassuring alternative news source.

Special prosecutor Patrick J. Fitzgerald has just launched his own brand-new Web site.

Could it be that he's getting ready to release some new legal documents? Like, maybe, some indictments? It's certainly not the action of an office about to fold up its tents and go home.

THE HERETIK WONDERS if Libby can get cable or DSL in jail.  WiFi?
