Source: McClellan: Cheney Should Testify about CIA Leak

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Vice President Dick Cheney should testify before Congress about his role in the leaking of a CIA agent's identity, former White House spokesman Scott McClellan told members of the House Judiciary Committee on Friday.

"The vice president has information that has not been shared publicly," McClellan said in response to a question from Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a Florida Democrat, about whom Congress should question in connection with the leaking of Valerie Plame Wilson's name to the media. "You could go down the list: Karl Rove, Ari Fleischer ..." McClellan added, referring to President Bush's former political adviser and first White House spokesman.

McClellan said he does not think the president knew in advance about the Plame Wilson leak.

Earlier, he told the committee that suspicion still surrounds Cheney's office because of unanswered questions about the leak.

McClellan also also said he could not rule out that Cheney had ordered his former chief of staff, Lewis "Scooter" Libby, to leak Plame Wilson's identity. A later investigation showed that Libby, in fact, had been involved in the leaking of the CIA operative's name.

1. The echoes of Cheney's laugh disturb me.

2. Yeah and we all know how that bass turd will respond: "Go f*ck yourself!"

Just take him down in a civil action threatening to take everything he owns. Mother nature will render the rest of the punishment on the bass turd!

6. How're the book sales, Scott?

You sure seemed worried about the country and the constitution *NOW*.

In another country, many of these guys would've been lined up against a brick wall a long time ago. Here, our own Democratically-controlled Congress is too busy protecting corporate interests and bowing to Bush to bother protecting our country.
