RAW STORY
Published: Monday May 15, 2006

Democrats are using the story of Dick Cheney's handwritten Plame Affair "margin notes" as a means of humorously striking out at the Vice President, RAW STORY has learned.

Notes made by Cheney in the margins of an op-ed by Ambassador Joseph Wilson just days before wife Valerie Plame Wilson's status as an undercover CIA agent was revealed to the press indicated that Cheney asked at the time, "Did his wife send him on a junket?" This hypothesis would later be echoed as a claim by Wilson's critics, and given by some as the reason Plame's name was entered into the debate.

The office of Senate Democratic Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) has now released its own pieces of conjecture, imagining what, in their eyes, Cheney's notes may be in the margins of speeches he plans to deliver today in Ohio and Minnesota. While "the remarks themselves may be devoid of interest," the release states, "Cheney's margin notes could be full of interesting revelations about the questions currently on his mind."

The Democrats' satirical take on Cheney's notes follows
