3. here's Cheney's statement on Libby

Vice President's Statement on Libby Resignation




Mr. Libby has informed me that he is resigning to fight the charges brought against him. I have accepted his decision with deep regret.

Scooter Libby is one of the most capable and talented individuals I have ever known. He has given many years of his life to public service and has served our nation tirelessly and with great distinction.

In our system of government an accused person is presumed innocent until a contrary finding is made by a jury after an opportunity to answer the charges and a full airing of the facts. Mr. Libby is entitled to that opportunity.

Because this is a pending legal proceeding, in fairness to all those involved, it would be inappropriate for me to comment on the charges or on any facts relating to the proceeding.

4. And What Did President "Jeb" West Wing Say About Toby?.....n/t

5. They can't even go near the word,"guilty"

can they? * mentions in his indictment statement the Libby should be "presumed innocent.", now Cheney says "presumed innocent until a contrary finding is made by a jury"
I've always had it described as (drilled in, more like) "presumed innocent until proven guilty"-so I'll bet that listeners/readers are filling in the blanks anyway.
