Dimed Dick Out

So says the Times:
WASHINGTON, Oct. 24 — I. Lewis Libby Jr., Vice President Dick Cheney’s chief of staff, first learned about the C.I.A. officer at the heart of the leak investigation in a conversation with Mr. Cheney weeks before her identity became public in 2003, lawyers involved in the case said Monday.
Notes of the previously undisclosed conversation between Mr. Libby and Mr. Cheney on June 12, 2003, appear to differ from Mr. Libby’s testimony to a federal grand jury that he initially learned about the C.I.A. officer, Valerie Wilson, from journalists, the lawyers said.
“Oh, THAT Valerie Plame! Why didn’t you say so?!”
Acually, rather than dropping a dime on the Dick he works for, it looks like Scooter has been trying to shield him.
BTW, doesn’t it look as though the Times’ reporting on this subject is suddenly improving?
Yeah, what was that stuff that concentrated the mind so wonderously?
