Exciting Rumors!

The New York Daily News reported this today:

Cheney's name has come up amid indications Fitzgerald may be edging closer to a blockbuster conspiracy charge—with help from a secret snitch.

"They have got a senior cooperating witness—someone who is giving them all of that," a source who has been questioned in the leak probe told the Daily News yesterday.

Here at headquarters, we hear that another news outlet will report later today on which person (or persons) is doing the cooperating.

And if I heard wrong, I'll simply erase this and no one will be the wiser.

UPDATE: Yup—Raw Story says the cooperating witness is Cheney's aide John Hannah.

I wonder if this story will make things awkward for Hannah at work today.

Don't go getting my hopes up, Jonathan. I've already noticed my heart rate has gone up 25 bpm just by reading this installment. And I'm all a-tingle. I'd better go do some push-ups to shake some of this pent-up energy.

Rumours of resignation are floating about and starting to catch wind. If he does, it'll be sooner rather than later and he'll be saying it was for 'health' reasons. Better that than being sacked by your boss, eh?
