Grand Jury testimony of Scooter Libby, former Chief of Staff of the United States (COSTUS) for the Vice President, leaked by Rove-ing reporter (humor). How much will COSTUS cost us? Please keep my identity a secret. Double super Secret. I could call in and have my voice disguised or and my face blocked out. Please send me an email if you plan to use this. Thanks.
