I just had to say, "I told you so."
How Fitzgerald can show Intent on Bolton and Cheney:
There was one person who was both with Bolton, who requested CIA agents names around that time of the outing, and the WHIG group (Cheney's group). It was John Hannah. So, I believe that Hannah is the connection for why they told the press "Plame" instead of "Wilson" as he knew "Plame" from his boss Bolton and then told the WHIG group about "Plame" being her undercover name. If Hannah has indeed flipped, then that means that he knows enough to take both Bolton and Cheney down.

John Bolton, the former Undersecretary of State for Arms Control and International Security Affairs who is now the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, was contacted by I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby in late May 2003 to find out who sent Ambassador Joseph Wilson on a fact-finding mission to Niger. Wilson was attempting to investigate reports that Iraq had tried to purchase yellowcake uraniumm the African country, lawyers involved in the CIA outing investigation told RAW STORY over the weekend.
The attorneys, along with intelligence officials, have provided RAW STORY additional insight into the unnamed identities of key players referred to in the five-count indictment against Libby, who resigned last Friday as Vice President Dick Cheney's chief of staff.
Specifically, they relayed what two key prosecution witnesses now cooperating with the probe told Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald about the events that led to Libby learning about Wilson's mission and Valerie Plame Wilson's identity. Plame Wilson, the wife of the former ambassador, was outed as a CIA agent working on weapons of mass destruction issues after Wilson begin criticizing the Bush Administration's Iraq intelligence.
