If it says Libby, Libby, Libby on the label
It's a sacrificial lamb upon the table. And Irv ain't gonna take it. The defense outlined by his lawyers is simple; Irv is the fall guy to protect Our Dear Embattled Leader's Beloved TurdBlossom. This should be a really, really interesting trial.
"They're trying to set me up. They want me to be the sacrificial lamb," attorney Theodore Wells said, recalling Libby's end of the conversation. "I will not be sacrificed so Karl Rove can be protected."I wonder if Crazy Dick Cheney is still going to testify? Will they let him bring a shotgun?
Rove was one of two sources for Novak's story. The other was then-Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage. Nobody, including Rove and Armitage, has been charged with the leak. Libby is accused of lying to investigators and obstructing the probe into the leak.
Cheney's notes from that meeting underscore Libby's concern, Wells said.
