Cheney to cop an ugliness plea?

[From Romenesko, apropos the article on how ugly kids are more likely to grow up to be criminals, posted here the other day…]

It was asked during the Peter Baker/Dan Balz session:

Tallahassee, Fla.: The Post http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/02/16/AR2006021602039.htmlreported today that less attractive people were more likely to commit crime — is this being discussed as a possible defense for any prosecution Dick Cheney may face regarding the Plame leak case?

Dan Balz: We suggest you contact Richard Morin [author of the article] directly about this because neither Peter nor I has read the details of that study.
