Who leaked Ralston's testimony about WH logs?
From the NYT - link

"At one point, the aides were asked why Mr. Cooper's call to Mr. Rove was not entered in Mr. Rove's office telephone logs. There was no record of the call, the person who has been briefed said, because Mr. Cooper did not call Mr. Rove directly, but was transferred to his office from a White House switchboard."

I think a Ralston source (lawyer?) said that the call wasn't entered into the wh log. I think a Rove source (Luskin?) explained this discrepancy by saying wh procedures don't call for logging transferred calls. The Rove source seems like pure BS.

The point: Ralston probably did not excuse the missing log entry with the Rove source BS.

1. Excellent point. You should contact Fitzgerald's office with this
question/suggestion for follow-up line of inquiry. You can call the US Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Virginia and ask for his contact information. Ask to speak to an investigator on his staff.

2. Interesting. It seems like Fitzgerald is leading the Grand Jury to ask
all of the right questions.

It looks more and more like a cover up with each question that is asked.

4. Btw, it's clear that Rove's lawyer won't shut up...
He's probably getting calls everyday from Rove telling him what to say, lie after lie after lie.
