Libby defense to call Cheney as witness in CIA leak trial
A defense lawyer for former vice-presidential aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby said Tuesday that Libby will call Vice President Dick Cheney to testify in Libby's upcoming trial on perjury and obstruction of justice charges. Libby is charged in connection to the Justice Department's investigation of the leak of former CIA operative Valerie Plame's identity and he is expected to argue that he innocently mis-remembered facts and did not intentionally misrepresent his knowledge of the leak due to the heavy volume of his work as Cheney's chief of staff. If Cheney does testify, he will be the first sitting vice president to testify in a criminal case.
It will be fascinating to see a man who has deliberately mis-remembered facts for over 4 years selectively declassify government secrets on the fly in order to save his alter ego. I may have to watch my old video copy of Dr. Stangelove to get in the right mood. Then, I will be watching to see if the Vice President's nose grows longer as his lips move.
