Why not indict Administration officials on everything, not just easy to
prove crimes?

Seems to me that it's worth a shot going after Administration officials "knowingly revealing Plame's identity" along with easier to prove crimes like, false statements, obstruction of justice and disclosing classified information. I say indict on everything that is a possibility and hope for convictions on all counts. If that doesn't pan out and you end up with convictions on the lesser charges, then at least you tried.

:shrug: Right?

2. No fishing expeditions
You need a specific charge to investigate. I do believe it's in the Constitution.

Not that it generally stops them from doing it themselves, but when you want to take out the top dog, you need an iron-clad bill of goods.
