#4 which is the public email address of Dick Cheney.

It is highly unlikely that anyone who knew Dick Cheney well enough to send him the names of secret leakers would use Dick Cheney's public e-mail address.

I would suspect that this is more likely an attempt to expose who is leaking within the organization. The fact that they included Dick CHeney's public e-mail address would make me suspicious that whoever did it wanted to make it look like it was an evil Cheney-Halliburton venture but was unaware that it was not his personal e-mail address.

#5 1) The whole program of congress soliciting anonymous tips is troubling. There are a lot of malcontents in an organization as large as Justice (which itself employs people with overenlarged egos). The program seems more like a source for political ammunition.

2) Using Dick Cheney's public email means that either some "whistle blower" was spoofing congress, or that one did not trust them with his or her real email address.

And rightly so, it would seem.

#9 My question is if any whistleblowers will come forward again soon. I mean, they were outed by the people who swore to keep their identities secret! It's such idiocy! And the juicy thing is, one whistleblower may be ratting on another whistleblower. And now they know he/she is!

I can't help but wonder, is this a Karl Rove plot from before he left, just now taking root? Did he have Cheneys E-mail put on the list, then an agent of his mail it to everyone? Or was it a latent program put onto the computer to send those e-mails back to senders? Either way it's probably a Rovian plan.
