Billmon: I Spy

The New Pravda adds to the speculation that Patrick Fitzgerald may soon put Karl Rove and/or Scooter Libby and/or their "high-level unindicted co-conspirators" in the same category as the AIPAC 3 -- i.e. espionage agents:
Recently lawyers said that they believed the prosecutor may be applying new legal theories to bring charges in the case.

One new approach appears to involve the possible use of Chapter 37 of the federal espionage and censorship law, which makes it a crime for anyone who "willfully communicates, delivers, transfers or causes to be communicated" to someone "not entitled to receive it" classified information relating the national defense matters.
