This may be LL's salvation: I don't know in a public forum if they want to say what Plame's "classification" was or is, because that would allow the defense counsel to press her for specifics until she would have to say, "That's a matter of national security, and I can't tell you," at which point defense would say, "Your honor, I ask for a dismissal, in that we do not have access to all the prosecution's evidence."

The evidence you seek is not relevant to the charge.

The evidence you seek is not relevant to the charge..

Then why is the allegation about classified status in the indictment? It's to set up the materiality of the perjury, right? The defense is entitled to test that, don't you think?
