"More allegations of Libby lies revealed"
"Judge's report shows Cheney aide is accused of broad deception" - headline at the WaPo. Shit on toast - isn't this one of the signs of the Apoclatude, or something?
The special prosecutor in the CIA leak case alleged that Vice President Dickhead's former chief of staff was engaged in a broader web of deception than was previously known and repeatedly lied to conceal that he had been a key source for reporters about undercover operative Valerie Plame, according to court records released yesterday...
US Circuit Judge David S. Tatel concluded that simply lying about a national security matter was serious enough to warrant ordering the reporters to testify about their conversations with Libby.
"While it is true that on the current record the special counsel's strongest charges are for perjury and false statements rather than security-related crimes ... perjury in this context is itself a crime with national security implications," Tatel wrote.

Hey, at least he didn't lie about a blowjob.
