"U.S. District Judge Reggie B. Walton said Mitchell can be called as a witness but he wouldn't allow Libby's attorneys to ask about her inconsistent statements."

What? Nobody's allowed to question little miss crater-face's public pronouncements? Why should that arrogant skank get a pass?

Good damn question.

I don't think they have to ask about her inconsistent statements. Just play the Imus tape and ask her if she said it. Yes or no. Then ask her if she ever told any other reporter or talked with any other reporter about Plame working at the CIA.

She will screw up in some way when she answers, which will open the door for the questioning, because she brought it up.

Of course, my courtroom trial experience is limited to watching Perry Mason and a few other TV attorney shows, so I might be a little off in my analysis.
