"Judge's Report Shows Cheney Aide Is Accused Of Broad Deception"

The documents say I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby denied in his testimony ever mentioning CIA operative Valerie Plame to former White House press secretary Ari Fleischer or former New York Times reporter Judith Miller in separate conversations he had with them in July 2003, and further never disclosed talking to Miller about Plame in June 2003....

The information about Libby and other individuals' secret grand jury testimony is included in sections of a once-sealed federal court opinion, portions of which the court made public today....Miller testified last year that Libby first mentioned Plame to her in a conversation in late June 2003 when she visited his office in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, and they discussed her again on July 8 and July 12.

Fleischer testified that at a lunch with Libby in July 2003, Libby relayed to him "on the q.t." that Wilson's wife worked at the CIA and sent him on the trip to Niger. Fleisher told the grand jury that he thought the lunch was "kinda weird" because Libby was normally "tight-lipped" and not so chummy that he would share such confidences with the press secretary.

The papers reveal that Libby said he never discussed Wilson's wife with Fleischer....
