Wilsonıs wife, Valerie Plame, was outed as a CIA operative after Wilson publicly challenged the Bush administrationıs reasons for going to war on Iraq. Libby was found guilty of perjury, obstruction of justice and making false statements in the investigation into who blew Plameıs cover. Wilson says he believes Libbyıs commutation was a quid pro quo for his silence on the role of President Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney, whose administration he calls ³corrupt from top to bottom.² Listen/Watch/Read http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=07/07/05/1415239 * Headlines for July 5, 2007 * - Bush Wonıt Rule Out Libby Pardon - Contractors Outnumber U.S. Troops in Iraq - Pentagon Probes War Crimes Allegations in Fallujah - Kidnapped BBC Reporter Freed in Gaza - Iran Renews Call for U.S. Talks - Salvadorian Police Fire on Anti-Water Privatization Protest - Environmental Activist Daniel McGowan Begins 7-Year Jail Term Listen/Watch/Read http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=07/07/05/1415229 = = = = = = = = = Democracy Now!'s daily news summaries are now available in Spanish: Read Thursday, July 5, 2007: http://www.democracynow.org/ To subscribe to these "Titulares de Hoy" by email, send a blank message to: boletin-sub@list.democracynow.org = = = = = = = = = COMING UP ON DEMOCRACY NOW!
