Leak Authorization

In the wake of recent reports that Vice President Dick Cheney authorized the leak of Valerie Plame's name to the media, CPLA has obtained the following transcipt from an upcoming made for television movie that has yet to be titled.


Scene: Scooter Libby is sitting at his desk in his White House office. He is simultaneously reading a briefing paper and looking at pictures of Kristy Swanson on Maxim magazine’s website.

Libby’s secretary enters the room.

Secretary: Mr. Libby, the Vice President would like to see you.

Libby: Oh … right now? I’m kind of busy with some research. (Libby is working the mouse frantically to close all of the Kristy Swanson pictures) Did he say what it was about?

Secretary: No, but I think it’s serious. He’s in his Darth Vader outfit again.

Libby: Ugh! … I heard he wants to be buried in that thing. Well, I better not keep Lord Vader waiting.


Scene: Vice President Dick Cheney is standing and looking out his office window. He is dressed in his Darth Vader outfit complete with breathing apparatus. Scooter Libby knocks on the door and enters the room.

Cheney (in the voice of James Earl Jones, turns to face Libby): SCOOTER! … Destroy them!

Libby: OK … uh, who???

Cheney: You know … that Joe Wilson and his wife. They must pay for betraying the Empire.

Libby: Ah …yes… I see. Did you have any thoughts on how to do this, my lord?

Cheney: Leak the wife’s name to our agents in the media. Tell them that she works for the CIA. Work with The Troll (Karl Rove) on this. He’s experienced in these matters. He is awaiting your instructions.

Libby: Excellent, my lord. The Troll and I will do as you say.

As Libby leaves the room, Cheney doubles over into a coughing fit.
