Wilson Challenges Subpoena In CIA Case
WASHINGTON -- Former ambassador Joseph Wilson asked a federal judge Wednesday not to force him to testify in the CIA leak case and accused former White House aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby of trying to harass him on the witness stand.Is this the same Joe Wilson who just couldn't wait to tell his story of being practically drawn and quartered by the Bush administration to anyone who would listen (or better yet, publish it)? Now suddenly the cat has his tongue? Yeah right.
Libby, who faces perjury and obstruction charges, subpoenaed Wilson as a defense witness this month. Libby's attorney, William Jeffress, said in court Tuesday that was a precautionary move and he did not expect to put Wilson on the stand.
A lack of balls perhaps, or maybe he has a teensy weensy problem with the phrase "Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth so help you god?"

The only problem with Joe Wilson's thinking is his civil suit, where the plantiff does not have a right to shut up about his involvement in a scandal.
