This is an out of control prosecutor.
Cheney has the right to tell his Chief of Staff anything he wishes, but the prosecutor is not entitled to those private communications.
I hope that Cheney claims executive privilege, something that Clinton did repeatedly for 8 years and even made new rules in order to claim the privilege.

"This is an out of control prosecutor."
He reminds me of Kenneth Starr, i.e., an idealist who is clueless about the realities of DC politics. I do not think a prosecutor who was an old Washington hand would be so shocked by leaks - even of classified info - which are SOP in DC, and might have dropped the whole thing a long time ago, with no indictments. Similarly, a prosecutor more attuned to DC realities might have looked the other way when he heard about Lewinsky, might have realized that bringing a sex-related charge against the president would create huge PR problems for his office, especially when confronted by a massive spin machine like the Clintons wielded.
