Plame team to force Cheney, Rove testm.
Reuters
LOS ANGELES, Aug 15 (Reuters) - A lawyer plans to use a legal precedent that allowed President Bill Clinton to be sued while in office to force Vice President Dick Cheney and presidential adviser Karl Rove to testify in a lawsuit brought by former CIA operative Valerie Plame and her husband.
California attorney Joseph Cotchett said he will ask a federal court to order Cheney, his ex-chief of staff Lewis "Scooter" Libby and Rove to testify in depositions about their role in disclosing her classified status.

don't believe it? please give facts or links to back up your arguments...or just bail out ... spreading insults don't make you a winner -quite the opposite, in fact.

Even if they testify, they will lie worse than Clinton. After all, Clinton was lying about BJs. Cheney et al released classified info in hopes of getting this woman killed to punish her husband. They make the Sopranos look innocent.

well it seems the legal precedence is there. but i doubt it will be enforced since the republicans control all 3 branches of gov't. this administration has ignored legal precedence and the constitution over and over again. i don't see why they'd suddenly start now.

If he does I'll bet Cheney does not perjure himself like Clinton did!

Are you saying that the law applies to Democrats and not to Republicans? I am not really sure what you are asking.
