Libby was charged with perjury (2 counts), obstruction of justice (two counts), and making a false statement (1 count).

Libby was NOT charged with the crimes Joe Wilson and his allies in the MSM were claiming. There was no disclosure of covert intelligence personnel, nor was there any improper disclosure of national defense information.

(Note, in recent times, the only public disclosures of classified information, that I am aware of, have been by Patrick Leahy and John Kerry).

It does appear that this is just another of those "Martha Stewart Crimes", where there was no crime until there was a witch hunt (er, an 'investigation').

We also understand, now, why the DEMONcrats have been going out of their way to praise Fitzgerald in the past week or so. They were leaked info on this indictment.

And, finally, we now know for certain that none of this would have happened in the first place if the CIA had not performed acts that, for all practical purposes, were intended to undermine the war effort and embarass the President.

THAT"S exactly why Libby needs to take this down full throttle! Wilson and Plame need to be exposed, but most of all WE need to go after the CIA and clean out that Rat's nest!
