I sure hope Libby doesn’t plan to go up in any small planes soon. Times:

[Libby’s grand jury] testimony, cited in a court filing by the government late Wednesday, provides the first indication that Mr. Bush, who has long assailed leaks of classified information [by persons other than Republican operatives] as a national security threat, played a direct role in the disclosure of the intelligence report on Iraq at a moment that the White House was trying to defend itself against charges that it had inflated the case against Saddam Hussein.

One word:
ITMFA!
Oh, and guess who Scooter leaked to? Why, an old, old friend of ours, “Judith [“Kneepads”] Miller, then a reporter for the New York Times.” Then a reporter… That’s almost too rich, isn’t it?

The court filing said that Mr. Libby said “he understood that he was to tell Miller, among other things, that a key judgment of the N.I.E. held that Iraq was ’vigorously trying to procure’ uranium.” Mr. Libby, the prosecutors, said, testified that the meeting with Ms. Miller was the “only time he recalled in his government experience when he disclosed a document to a reporter that was effectively declassified by virtue of the president’s authorization that it be disclosed.”

Ask your representative: What is your plan to restore Constitutional government?
