Fitzgerald-Cheney Interview: A Comedy of ExcusesBy: emptywheel Friday July 3, 2009 7:50 am |

The Fitzgerald-Cheney Interview: What Don’t We Know That We Don’t Know?By: emptywheel Thursday July 2, 2009 7:15 pm |
Mary pointed me to DOJ's latest attempt to prevent CREW from accessing the materials relating to Cheney's interview with Fitzgerald and the FBI.
