White House Obstructing Plame Investigation

The Bush Administration is actively blocking Congress’ investigation into the outing of once-covert CIA agent Valerie Plame, according to House Oversight Committee chairman Henry Waxman.

In a letter sent today to Attorney General Michael Mukasey, Waxman notes that “White House objections are preventing Special Counsel Patrick Fitzgerald from disclosing key information to investigating officials.” Among the documents being withheld are interviews taken from White House officers during Fitzgerald’s investigation into the leak of Plame’s identity.</em>
