One more thing about the October 1-3 timeframe. Remember that Irv and Dick were in Jackson Hole, WY at the time, conspiring a coverup. That may explain why incriminating things would have been emailed.

Remember that the investigation was out there on Septmeber 26, at least.

Like you, I do think that’s a likely scenario. The email we have is Cathie Martin making sure others get any references to Libby from Scottie McC. Now it’s possible that they did so only out of protection, but it’s possible they knew more (remember, Martin says she told Libby about Plame). Remember too that Jenny Mayfield was holding documents–a folder of Niger stuff–until March or so, so she was clearly knowingly withholding evidence. So she might be a good candidate (she seemed pretty not-bright in her leniency letter).

I believe that’s what happened. Now, how do you prove that, is it
a lost cause. I’ve always recommended that we hire techie experts to
review/prepare a report for Congress that we can rely on…
I don’t care how much it costs…

roTL will have to confirm, but I think the Chenega reference in this thread was only tangentially related to the post here, was more responsive to content in the Fitzgerald Subpoenas and Server Crashes thread from several days ago when I’d commented about the different vendors who worked on the IT messaging infrastructure for EOP-OA. One of the vendors was an Alaskan native firm TKC, cited in testimony by Steven McDevitt; roTL mentioned in this thread that Chenega was yet another Alaskan native firm working on IT products (but I note not cited by Steven McDevitt as a direct contract).

As of this thread, we still do not have any solid information about which vendors provided the services required save for Microsoft with regard to message restoration.

very interesting, cinnamonape.

The Republicans certainly have shown an amazing attraction to exploit all things Native American this century.

Aside from just fronting a Native American relationship, I wonder what the requirement is to be considered Native American these days?

I seem to recall it was if a great grandparent was Native American that one (with 1/16 Native American Indian blood) can claim the same. Don’t know how that then works for one’s own children, however. Do they have to move off the Indian reservation once they are no longer minors? or does an initiation rite take care of the tribe membership and benefits after that?

OT: have you seen Eli’s post at FDL? (”Obama administration finally takes a stand against waterboarding”)

Seems the National Park Service is threatening to prosecute anti-torture activists if they carry out their plan to demonstrate waterboarding.
