Fitzgerald Vs. The White House In Executive Privelege War

According to the Drudge Report, Prosecutor Fitzgerald plans to call Vice President Dick Cheney as a witness in the trial of Lewis Libby.

This will naturally result in an executive privilege standoff between the White House and Fitzgerald. A White House source said "If Mr. Fitzgerald is going to demand a public recounting of conversations between the vice president, or even the president, and his staff, on matters he, himself, has acknowledged are 'classified,' executive privilege will obviously be invoked."

Does The President have another big fight left in him? Let's find out!
