Wolfowitz
Wolfowitz commends Libby for protecting a covert CIA agent, he also relates how Libby helped Armitage with legal advice. Wolfowitz goes on say that Libby's wife is a "life long Democrat".
One involves his [Libby's] effort to pursuade a newspaper not to publish information that would have endangered the life of a covert CIA agent working overseas.
[]
I also remember how Mr. Libby offered his services pro bono or at reduced costs after he had returned to private law practice - to help former colleagues and friends with legal issues. In one case he helped a public official defend himself against libelous accusations, something that is extremely difficult to do for anyone in public office. The official in question was Richard Armitage who more recently served as - Deputy Secretary of State.

Bolton
Bolton expands on the poor memory defense, explaining how he can't remember anything either.
I myself [Bolton] have been to meetings after which I could not remember which agency or Department most of the people worked for, or even why they were there.

Feith
Feith forgets about the memory defense.
He had to deal with enormous quanities of material. I was always impressed by the number of policy papers and intelligence analyses he had read,
It was more than one could keep straight in one's mind, but Scooter demonstrated dedication and organizational skill throught the papers and notes he prepared on the basis of his reading.

Matalin and Carville
Though my husband James Carville, a Democratic Strategist and Clinton supporter, shares neither political nor philosophical views with Scooter, he has deep respect for his intellect, his integrity, and joins me in the sentiments expressed here.

Alan Simpson
Simpson tells about Scooter's loyalty to Cheney, also uses the word "splendid" a lot.
During my years of friendship with Scooter, I found a singular attribute which will always remain undiminished in my mind. That is the attribute of Loyalty - unswerving, unselfish, unwavering loyalty. One could almost superimpose upon his blow the accolade "The Good Soldier".

I has seen him "at the side" of my old friend Dick Cheney - attentive, thoughtful, gracious, patient and always, always exceedingly effcient and I observed on many occasions how Dick relied on this man.
