Cheney Says He Might Testify in Leak Case (WaPo)
Cheney Says He Might Testify in Leak Case

The Associated Press
Thursday, June 22, 2006; 7:57 PM

WASHINGTON -- Vice President Dick Cheney said Thursday he might have to testify in the CIA leak trial of his former chief of staff.

Cheney made the comment in a CNN interview, following last month's suggestion by prosecutors that the vice president would be a logical witness in the case of I. Lewis Libby, who is accused of perjury, obstruction and lying to the FBI.

Libby is "one of the finest men I've ever known," Cheney said, then declined further comment. "I may be called as a witness."

Cheney's state of mind is directly relevant to whether Libby lied to FBI agents and a federal grand jury about how Libby learned CIA officer Valerie Plame's identity and what he later told reporters, Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald has said in recently filed court papers.

3. I'm going to have to develop a macro:
"God, I detest that man," since every time I see Cheney's name, I feel the need to get it off my chest... :eyes:


(Go take a nap, agent Mike. I'd never wish any of these assholes harm. We don't need no sticking REPUB martyrs)

5. More lying from Wapo
They obviously know TruthOut forced Rove to role on Cheney yet they keep playing us all like fools pretending Chaney is going to be in court as a witness and not a defendant.

Folks there is sooooo much more to this than the facts suggest.
