Several years ago, no one (Tenet) was willing to stand between Cheney/Libby/Addington and the CIA agents to provide cover. Now, I think, their new directors have begun to shield their staff from Cheney’s gunslingers. But I’m guessing.

Marcy has just posted a new time-line…!

Where? Where?

In response to CTuttle @ 55
Oh, my…

“She said a lawyer had called her just before her talk began and told her that special prosecutor Patrick J. Fitzgerald had agreed to turn his transcripts of interviews with Mr. Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney over to U. S. Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., who is known for his relish for investigating wrongdoing by Republicans.”

something i noticed earlier today, which seemed quite strange – for the first time i can remember, there are no house oversight and government reform committee hearings on their schedule… usually there are quite a few. my thought this morning was that they were winding down before the winter recess, or that something big was up.

or it’s all a coinkydink.

Washington post version up now:

CIA Destroyed Tapes of Harsh Interrogations

From that linky:

…Hayden wrote. “So, on its own, CIA began to videotape interrogations.”

~snip~

The recordings stopped after the CIA “determined that its documentary reporting was full and exacting, removing any need for tapes,” Hayden wrote.

I’d still bet on this being a “parsed” statement wrt “videotaping”. And the reference to “documentary reporting” suggests more than just a stenographer taking down the screams of pain or gurgles of drowning.

FWIW and YMMV *g*
