Cheney authorized leak campaign against Wilson, Plame

Testimony and documents in the trial show [pasty WH svengali Karl] Rove joining Cheney in trying to undercut Wilson's claim that the administration had twisted prewar intelligence to exaggerate the Iraqi threat.

"Get the full story out," Cheney told aides, according to Libby's grand jury testimony.

Cheney told Libby early in the effort to deal with Wilson that his wife worked at the CIA. And while the Cheney-Libby team worked in lockstep attacking Wilson in July 2003, Libby said he faced a somewhat distant vice president when the affair came under investigation, first by the Justice Department, then by Fitzgerald.
I bet he did.
