Common Themes (talking points) of the pro-Libby Letters

[Solly Mack]

In this letter (pages 67-69 of 81), the 6 Pro-Libby talking points are:

1 - Libby is truthful, honest
2 - Libby is serious and discrete
3 - Libby is a scholar, smart, intelligent, well read and wise
4 - Libby is selfless
5 - Libby is a devoted family man
6 - Libby is a patriot







So I got curious...
