Gonzalez’s sketchy behavior in CIA leak probe
According to the AP, 12 hours passed where Card and Gonzalez knew of the investigation and no one else did- was it really becuase it was late, or was there some shreddding going on? Why would he tell Card and no one else? How hard would it have been to send an email to the rest of the staff directing them to preserve documents? This is questionable behavior for a man who is now the most powerful attorney in the land.: Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said Sunday that he notified White House chief of staff Andy Card after the Justice Department opened an investigation into who revealed a covert CIA officer’s identity, but waited 12 hours to tell anyone else in the executive mansion. The White House did not respond to questions Sunday about whether Card passed that information to top Bush aide Karl Rove or anyone else, giving them advance notice to prepare for the investigation.
