Evidence indicating that Libby or his attorney may have tried to discourage or influence Miller's testimony is significant for two reasons, outside legal experts say. First, attempting to influence a witness's testimony might in and of itself constitute obstruction of justice or witness-tampering, said the experts.

More important, evidence that Libby might have tried to discourage Miller's testimony has put Libby's testimony in a worse light, according to government officials briefed on the matter. Potentially misleading and incomplete answers by Libby to federal investigators are less likely to be explained away as the result of his faulty memory or inadvertent mistakes, the sources said.

With reports of indictments getting pushed back, one has to wonder...Is Scooter looking for a way out?

1. Witness tampering on top of all the other things

FItzgerald had her read a portion of that Aspen coded not she got from Libby to the grand jury.

2. The other part of the letter from Libby describing how the roots of the

trees were all connected seemed to be reminding her that they were all in this together. I have problems believing that Scooter is a nature lover.

6. Good article...

I wonder if any attorneys will find themselves in trouble. I also wonder if any of the Patriot Act clauses have been used in this case. You know like eavesdropping on attorney-client conversations. Wire-tapping attorney phone lines ect..
