How Dick Cheney's Top Aide 'Scooter' Libby Misled Federal Prosecutors in the CIA Leak Case

New York Times reporter Judith Miller will testify again today before a grand jury. Her testimony is expected to center on conversations she had in June 2003 with Vice President Dick Cheney’s chief of staff Lewis “Scooter” Libby. Investigative journalist Murray Waas revealed late yesterday in the National Journal that Libby failed to tell the grand jury that he spoke to Miller about Valerie Plame and her husband Ambassador Joseph Wilson in June 2003 – weeks before Plame’s name first appeared in the press. Speculation is growing in Washington that Libby and President Bush’s top advisor Karl Rove could soon be indicted – possibly on conspiracy charges.
