The indictiment of Libby may have something to do with the letter he sent to Miller while she was in jail. Fitzgerald asked her to read the last three paragraphs to the GJ

Specifically, "The public report of every other reporter's testimony makes clear that they did not discuss Ms. Plame's name or identity with me," Mr. Libby wrote.

Mr Fitzgerald also focused on the letter's closing lines. "Out West, where you vacation, the aspens will already be turning. " Mr. Libby wrote. "They turn in clusters, because their roots connect them."

I predict that Libby and Miller will be indicted.

"Fitzgerald asked her to read the last three paragraphs to the GJ."

Now how would you know this?

I think two people get indicted, Libby and Wilson. Libby gets indicted for Providing False Info to the GJ, Wilson for Disclosing Classified Info. Miller walks because she made a deal with Fitzgerald.

Hmmmm, I plugged these words into my Enigma machine......and I got nothin'.

Look man, I know that Miller was hiding something, but I STILL BELIEVE, that Libby spoke off the record and did not bring up the name until the name was run by him. This GJ is apparent so stupid that they cannot discern a reporters trap for a source when they see it, and probably don't think they would do that or understand the reasoning.

If the SC is still with the jury, there may be nothing here at all, or you may be right about Miller, I just don't know and I understand how how came to that conclusion. It took two to tango!

I'm gonna wait for confirmation and this BS about further investigation, this sounds like statute crap.

Perhaps Libby heard about Plame's real job from a reporter or journalist who did not testify. Otherwise I find it astounding that he wrote a letter to a likely GJ witness that contradicted his own testimony.

"Plame's 'name' or 'identity'..."

I don't know your source but even if true, this could still be just ridiculous.

Libby could have heard, about Wilson's wife getting him the gig, from a reporter, without hearing anything about her NAME or what exactly was her job at the CIA. This is wording approved by a lawyer. Lawyers can make mistakes, but the point is that the letter zeros in on something very, very specific. It does not claim that no reporter discussed anything with him about this matter. It simply makes no such claim.

As for the "Aspens turning" business, ????????????

I wonder if there was a more intimate personal relationship between Libby and Miller. It might explain why Miller went to jail -- not just to protect a source but a secret -- when she never wrote a story about Wilson/Plame. It would also explain Libby's strangely worded (coded) letter to Miller. Maybe Libby lied to the grand jury because he's more worried about the discovery of an affair (he's a married man with kids) than he is about the Plame leak.
