Search web search Home Singapore Asia Pacific World Business Entertainment Sports Technology Africa Europe Latin America Middle East North America Cheney FBI interview: 72 instances of can't recall By PETE YOST,Associated Press Writer - Tuesday, November 3 Send IM Story Print WASHINGTON – Federal prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald famously declared in the Valerie Plame affair that "there is a cloud over the vice president." Last week's release of an FBI interview summary of Dick Cheney's answers in the criminal investigation underscores why Fitzgerald felt that way. On 72 occasions, according to the 28-page FBI summary, Cheney equivocated to the FBI during his lengthy May 2004 interview, saying he could not be certain in his answers to questions about matters large and small in the Plame controversy. The Cheney interview reflects a team of prosecutors and FBI agents trying to find out whether the leaks of Plame's CIA identity were orchestrated at the highest level of the White House and carried out by, among others, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, Cheney's chief of staff. Among the most basic questions for Cheney in the Plame probe: How did Libby find out that the wife of Bush administration war critic Joseph Wilson worked at the CIA? Libby's own handwritten notes suggest Libby found out from Cheney. When Libby discovered Cheney's reference to Plame and the CIA in his notes _ notes that Libby knew he would soon have to turn over to the FBI _ the chief of staff went to the vice president, probably in late September or early October 2003. Sharing the information with Cheney was in itself an unusual step at the outset of a criminal investigation in which potential White House witnesses were being ordered by their superiors not to talk to each other about the Plame matter. "It turns out that I have a note that I had heard about" Plame's CIA identity "from you," Libby says he told the vice president. And what did Cheney say in response? Fitzgerald asked Libby in front of a federal grand jury six months later. "He didn't say much," Libby replied. "You know, he said something about 'From me?' something like that, and tilted his head, something he does commonly, and that was that." Cheney's version of the conversation, as related in the FBI interview summary? Cheney "cannot recall Scooter Libby telling him how he first heard of Valerie Wilson. It is possible Libby may have learned about Valerie Wilson's employment from the vice president ... but the vice president has no specific recollection of such a conversation." On another basic point, Cheney simply refused to answer. Fitzgerald had gathered evidence that Cheney apparently persuaded President George W. Bush to hurriedly declassify portions of a prewar National Intelligence Estimate on weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. The declassification was followed by Libby providing the information to a New York Times reporter while simultaneously talking to reporters about Plame's CIA identity. As Fitzgerald pressed the issue in the FBI interview, Cheney refused to confirm any discussion with Bush, saying that he must refrain from commenting about any private or privileged conversations he may have had with the president. It was an instance of Libby, who had testified two months earlier to a federal grand jury, being more forthcoming than Cheney. Prosecutors obtained information about the leaking of the declassified NIE from Cheney's chief of staff, who testified that he had talked to New York Times reporter Judith Miller about the National Intelligence Estimate following the "president's approval relayed to me through the vice president." Cheney's FBI interview is a study in contrasts. Expressing uncertainty on many areas he was being questioned about and refusing to discuss another area altogether, Cheney was emphatic on at least one basic point. According to the FBI summary, Cheney said there was no discussion of using Plame's employment with the CIA to counter her husband's criticism that the Bush administration had manipulated prewar intelligence to exaggerate the Iraqi threat. There was no discussion, Cheney insisted, of "pushing back" on Joseph Wilson's credibility by raising the issue of nepotism, the fact that Wilson's wife worked for the CIA, the same agency that dispatched him to the African nation of Niger to run down the report of an agreement to supply uranium "yellowcake" to Iraq. It was one example of Cheney being categorical and Libby seeming uncertain. "In a prior FBI interview, you indicated it was possible that you may have talked to the Vice President on Air Force Two ... about whether you should share the information with the press about Wilson's wife?" the prosecutor asked Libby in his grand jury testimony. "It's possible that would have been one of the times I could have talked to him about what I had learned," Libby replied. "As you sit here today, do you recall whether you had such a conversation with the vice president on Air Force Two?" the prosecutor asked. "No, sir. My, my best recollection of that conversation was what I had on my note card which we have produced which doesn't reflect anything about that," Libby replied. Libby was indicted, tried and convicted for perjury, obstruction and lying to the FBI. The president commuted his 30-month prison sentence, but rejected Cheney's pleas in the last days of the administration to pardon the vice president's former chief of staff. The Cheney interview summary was released Friday to the watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington, which sued to get the material under the Freedom of Information Act. ___ On the Net: Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington: http://www.citizensforethics.org Recommend Send IM Story Print Related Articles UN envoy probes Baghdad security as death toll doubles AFP - Tuesday, November 3 Clinton moderates statement on settlements AP - 1 hour 49 minutes ago Streetcars on the ballot amid trolley revival AP - Tuesday, November 3 Karzai declared Afghan vote winner AFP - Tuesday, November 3 Officers had visited Ohio home where bodies found AP - Tuesday, November 3 News Search Top Stories Ford swings into profit as North America rebounds Eurozone manufacturing expands in 17-month first Scientists map genome of pig Nepal cabinet to meet on Everest: minister Europe probe tracks global warming impact on water More Top Stories » ADVERTISEMENT Most Popular Most Viewed Most Recommended Somali centenarian weds 17-year-old US lender CIT files for bankruptcy Slumdog stars 'may lose allowance' for skipping school Israel delays expulsion of 1,200 children of foreign workers Employment turnaround likely at start of 2010: Geithner More Most Viewed » Mobile phone giant Nokia sues Apple over patents Huge dinosaur find in China 'may include new species' More Most Recommended » Elsewhere on Yahoo!
