Will Wilson sue Bush in civil court? Can he do it?
Advertisements [?]
Isn't it true that Paula Jones' suit against Clinton paves the way for civil suits against standing presidents? What will happen if Wilson sues Bush? Will it get that ugly? Will Fitz. have to hand over transcripts to Wilson attonrneys if there's a civil suit? Will the whole cabal have to testify under oath? Will it bring them down? Can I hope?

April 9, 2006 — In an exclusive interview on "This Week with George Stephanopoulos," former U.S. ambassador Joe Wilson called upon the White House to "come clean" and release the transcripts of prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald's interviews with President Bush and Vice President Cheney in the CIA leak investigation.

Wilson, whose wife's secret employment by the CIA was revealed following the leak of classified intelligence information, insisted, "I think it is long past time for the White House to come clean on all of this."

When asked whether or not Wilson and Valerie Plame, his wife, intend to file a civil suit against the White House, the former ambassador replied, "We're holding keeping all options open at this point."
