Washington, DC—October 21, 2005—12:00 EST—TomFlocco.com exclusive—Today
Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald handed over 22 indictments to Attorney
General Alberto Gonzalez, accusing President George W. Bush, Vice President
Richard Cheney and others of espionage, obstruction of justice, perjury and a
variety of other charges in the matter of the CIA/Valerie Plame leak-gate
case.

According to
intelligence sources who spoke with federal whistleblowers Thomas Heneghan and
Stewart Webb, Bush then ordered Gonzalez to fire Fitzgerald and have the
indictments quashed and sealed.
Gonzalez refused to release the indictments which have been handed down by the
grand jury and ordered served by a judge, subjecting the Attorney General to
additional charges of obstruction of justice, the sources said.

Gonzalez was Bush’s former personal White House counsel before receiving a
presidential appointment as U.S. Attorney General.
The move is reminiscent of the “Saturday night massacre” when President
Nixon fired Watergate Special Prosecutor Archibald Cox in an attempt to save
his presidency and obstruct justice.
Intelligence sources added that Bush tried to delay publicity about his
attempt to fire Fitzgerald and quash the indictments this afternoon by
ordering a diversion regarding a “Capitol Hill police attempt to disrupt a
suspicious package in a car near the U.S. Capitol.”
The move to distract attention from the indictments occurred not long after
the receipt of process by Gonzalez, according to intelligence sources with
knowledge of the events.
While Gonzalez received the service of indictments, Bush was in California
this morning and was scheduled to speak at the dedication of the new Air Force
One pavilion at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in California.

It can be assumed
that Bush’s orders for Gonzalez to refuse receipt of process and fire the
prosecutor in the CIA leak case were discussed over the telephone since Bush
was to speak at the Reagan Library just a few hours after the indictments were
served.
Bush should have finished his speech at approximately 2:30 pm Eastern time,
and it is probable that presidential strategy sessions regarding how to
prevent the indictments and their criminal contents from becoming public have
already commenced.
It is open to conjecture whether Bush could be arrested in California before
even returning to Washington, given the criminal nature of the indictments.
An attempt to quash indictments and to fire Fitzgerald may also cause a
constitutional crisis if Bush and Gonzalez continue to obstruct justice and
defy U.S. law and constitutional legal process.
Intelligence sources told TomFlocco.com that the military or U.S. marshals
should arrest Bush, Gonzalez, Cheney and others immediately for their criminal
acts in keeping explosive espionage, obstruction and perjury indictments
hidden from the American people, all of which affects U.S. national security.
