Luskin’s Plunging Credibility

By Nico Pitney on Jul 22nd, 2005 at 3:26 pm

“According to [Karl Rove's lawyer Robert] Luskin, the prosecutor said he believes Rove was candid and forthcoming about his contact with reporters. ‘I’ve been assured by the prosecutor they have no reason to doubt the honesty of anything he’s said,’ Luskin said.”
– Washington Post, 7/3/05

VERSUS

“Two top White House aides have given accounts to the special prosecutor about how reporters told them the identity of a CIA agent that are at odds with what the reporters have said. …

“These discrepancies may be important because one issue Fitzgerald is investigating is whether Libby, Rove, or other administration officials made false statements during the course of the investigation.”
– Bloomberg News, 7/22/05

Too bad Johnny Cochran died, he would have been a good lawyer for this.

Yes, indeed and Johnny C. could use Ken Mehlman’s “vindicates and exonerates, not implicates” line :) (joke courtesy Jon Stewart)

We know that the grand jury is smelling a rat, and that’s good news. For example when Cooper testified that he NEVER spoke about welfare reform with Pig-man Rove, the jury came out with a flurry of questions… keep it up, jury!

Purgery is a given at this point. Rove will do some jail time, no doubt. Every legal expert in the country agrees on that.
