It was always my understanding that the Judge disallowed that in the grand jury.

Then what is the charge?

Fitzgerald is required to make a charge in his opening statements at the start of this trial.

The article seems to list the charges:

"That discrepancy is at the heart of Libby's perjury and obstruction trial."

Not that I agree.

Then what is the charge?

Basically its lying to federal investigators (FBI agents) and to a federal grand jury. Nothing to do with whether Plame is covert so that doesnt matter.
