All are part-timers splitting their time between their regular DOJ/USAtty jobs and working for Fitz. This makes me wonder where his funding is coming from, which is probably DOJ, and if someone is choking off the flow. That’s a mighty small group of people fighting a mighty big fight. Does anyone have any info on who, if anyone, controls his budget? OTOH, maybe Fitz wants it that way. It’s a nagging concern of mine and I’d like to put it to sleep.</p> I read recently that Fitz’s supporting staff consists of only five lawyers and some paralegals.

i’d like to add this bit to the DKOSopedia time line, but haven’t registered; Condi Rice, in the press gaggle in which she is discussing the yellowcake 16 words, directs reporters to ‘the Agency’ for answers –

Q Dr. Rice, when did you all find out that the documents were forged?

DR. RICE: Sometime in March, I believe. Is that right?

MR. FLEISCHER: The IAEA reported it.

DR. RICE: The IAEA reported it I believe in March. But I will tell you that, for instance, on Ambassador Wilson’s going out to Niger, I learned of that when I was sitting on whatever TV show it was, because that mission was not known to anybody in the White House. And you should ask the Agency at what level it was known in the Agency.

Q When was that TV show, when you learned about it?

DR. RICE: A month ago, about a month ago.

Q Can I ask you about something else?

DR. RICE: Yes. Are you sure you’re through with this?

He seems to be giving them a history lesson. Very boring. Every so often, the First Chimp pauses to wait for applause but there is always a pause from the time he stops until the time the applause start. Obviously, the cadets aren’t paying attention.</p> Funny to watch chimpy talking to the graduating West Point class. He seems to be giving them a history lesson. Very boring.
