....an administration where the indicted chief of staff of the vice-president of the US did not take the witness stand in his own defense to charges that he lied to investigators and to a grand jury investigating a CIA complaint of a criminal leak of the name and employment details of one of it's agents...an administration where the VP, after calling his indicted chief of staff, "one of the finest men I've known", did not come to his aid's criminal trial to testify on his behalf....
....and where, in his summation, the special counsel prosecuting the Vice president's "man"....a prosecutor appointed by the president as US Attorney for So.

..."a cloud over what the vice president did" during the period before Novak's column was published, and it was created by testimony about Cheney directing Libby and others at the White House to disseminate information on Wilson and Wilson's criticisms.
"We didn't put that cloud there. That cloud remains because the defendant obstructed justice and lied about what happened," Fitzgerald added......

....that jury reacted to the absence of both the defendant, former chief of staff of the US, and of the VP himself, from the witness stand to testify in their own defense, by accepting the special counsel's evidence and summation....by convicting the defendant on 4 of 5 felony counts.
So what we can "take to the bank", is that the COS of the VP is a convicted felon....convicted of obstructing an investigation, during wartime, of the leaking of classified information, a leak that a prosecutor, appointed by the president, declared to be approved and directed by the VP, himself, and we have the fact that the former employer of president Bush and Karl Rove's speical assistant, is serving a federal prison sentence, after pleading guilty to charges related to and involving that special assistant, and reports that she, while working at the white house, had more than 300 instances of contact with her convicted former employer, a man who ther president himself, denied any official contact with....and we have proof that her communications with this felon were intentionally shifted from the white house email system to the RNC.org system, for the stated purpose of avoiding detection, traceibility, accountability.....
