Justice Probes Leak of CIA Operative's ID
40 minutes ago


By CURT ANDERSON, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - The Justice Department launched a full-blown criminal investigation into who leaked the name of a CIA officer, and President Bush directed his White House staff on Tuesday to cooperate fully.

The White House staff was notified of the investigation by e-mail after the Justice Department decided late Monday to move from a preliminary investigation into a full probe. It is rare that the department decides to conduct a full investigation of the alleged leak of classified information.



So, The Justice department, this Justice department, the Ashcroft one? Thinks this is worth a full-blown criminal investigation.

Can we start a betting pool as to which low level sub secretary gets thrown to the wolves on this one? If that's what happens it will be a mistake, because the buck won't stop there. Nixon found that out the hard way.
