In a development that got no media play over the weekend, Lewis 'Scooter' Libby's defense lawyer announced on Friday that he has located five witnesses who will testify that Joe Wilson outed his wife Valerie Plame as a CIA employee before Robert Novak did so in his July 2003 column.
According to the NationalReviewOnline's Byron York, Libby's lawyer Ted Wells told the court that his witnesses "will say under oath that Mr. Wilson told them his wife worked for the CIA."
Wells said that he expects Leakgate Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald to call Wilson to testify in a bid to salvage his case.
Reacting to the news on Friday, Wilson declined to deny the allegation, suggesting instead that it no longer mattered who first outed his wife.
"The last I heard, this is case is about allegations Mr. Libby lied, perjured himself before the FBI, special prosecutor and grand jury and obstructed justice," he told CNN in a statement. "None of those charges of which he's been indicted has anything to do with me."

It no longer mattered who outed his wife??
Yeh, the book deal has been confirmed and the title just happens to be "Fair Game"....the words that Novak spoke to Joe in a phone call BEFORE Novak printed the article.
The book will be just more Plame lies. What the heck does anyone want to know about Valerie?? except who she reports to in the Dem Party...and that's not going to be in the book.

I think a jury will find it difficult to convict if the original charges of "outing" an agent turns out to be the husband himself! Something we already knew on FR almost since day 1.

This investigation is dead in the water. Fitz will be looking for the door now. This guy needs to be brought up on charges of malfeasance.

If these people truly exist, where have they been the last 2 years? Why let Joe Wilson profit from his stupidity and persecution complex so long?
