Miller's Lawyer Turns on Libby
No wonder Judith Miller is now Fitzgerald's hero. Here's her lawyer, Bob Bennett, on ABC's "This Week" today when asked if Libby tried to influence Miller's testimony. [Update: BradBlog has the video.]:
"I wouldn't say the answer to that is yes, but it was very troubling," Bennett said on ABC's "This Week." "Our reaction when we got that letter, both Judy's and mine, is that was a very stupid thing to put in a letter because it just complicated the situation," Bennett said.
"It was a very foolish thing to put in a letter, as evidenced by the fact that you're highlighting it here," Bennett said. "It was a close call and she was troubled by it; no question about it."
The import of what Bennett is saying: Libby should have known Miller wouldn't lie for him and his letter was a suggestion that she should.
