Is Madsen gettin more accurate info from his sources??<br><br>seems better informed than usual<br><br>''November 1, 2005 -- Bush White House Circling Wagons for a Long Siege. After being identified in the Patrick Fitzgerald indictment of Vice President Cheney's Chief of Staff Lewis Libby, Cheney's counsel David Addington has been named as the replacement for Libby as Chief of Staff. Also, John Hannah, who is said to have been "flipped" as a cooperating witness early on by Fitzgerald, has been named as Libby's replacement as Assistant National Security Adviser to the Vice President. This "in your face" reaction to the Libby indictment indicates the White House is preparing for a continued investigation and are preparing a strategy to stonewall the prosecutor and the court that will deliberate the charges against Libby.<br><br>Addington was cited in the Fitzgerald indictment as follows:<br><br>"Also on or about July 8, 2003, LIBBY met with the Counsel to the Vice President in an anteroom outside the Vice President’s Office. During their brief conversation, LIBBY asked the Counsel to the Vice President, in sum and substance, what paperwork there would be at the CIA if an employee’s spouse undertook an overseas trip."<br><br>Hannah was likely one of the two "other officials" who accompanied Cheney and Libby on a trip to Norfolk:<br><br>On or about July 12, 2003, LIBBY flew with the Vice President and others to and from Norfolk, Virginia, on Air Force Two. On his return trip, LIBBY discussed with other officials aboard the plane what LIBBY should say in response to certain pending media inquiries, including questions from Time reporter Matthew Cooper.<br><br>Hannah has been linked to a discredited Iraqi defector tied to Ahmad Chalabi's Iraqi National Congress (INC) who fed bogus intelligence on Iraqi WMDs to the Vice President's office and the Pentagon. The CIA determined that the INC defector was a liar. Hannah was the chief interlocutor for the bogus intelligence in Cheney's office while then-Undersecretary of Defense for Policy and Plans Douglas Feith is believed to have served as the conduit at Defense. The bogus intelligence was transmitted via a Pentagon-funded program called the Information Collection Program. The program was used by the INC to channel bogus intelligence to the intelligence services of the United States, Britain, France, Italy, Spain, Italy, Sweden, Germany, and Denmark.<br><br>CIA's Millerwise Dyck: Quite a history of shilling for the GOP<br><br>Millerwise Dyck's sister, Molly Millerwise, works in the public affairs office at Treasury. Both Millerwise sisters worked as aides on the Bush 2000 presidential campaign and are close to former White House Press secretary Ari Fleischer, who remains under investigation concerning his July 2003 conversation with the White House from Africa-bound Air Force One in which he is believed to have revealed the contents of a Secret State Department report on Mrs. Wilson's CIA status. Millerwise Dyck was also interviewed by the Special Prosecutor concerning what she knew about the leak while she worked for Cheney and Libby."<br><br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.waynemadsenreport.com/">www.waynemadsenreport.com/</a><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <p></p><i></i>
