shumer-ftn.jpg While talking about the Scooter Libby commutation on Face the Nation, Sen. Schumer said he talked to Pat Leahy about calling Patrick Fitzgerald in for questioning about Bush and Cheney because they didn't talk to him in the grand jury setting about the Plame/CIA leak. All legal scholars weigh in please. Can he call Fitz since Bush/Cheney weren't under oath?

Schumer: I've spoken to Sen. Leahy about this and what we're thinking of doing is calling Patrick Fitzgerald---the prosecutor before us....he did interview the President and Vice President...not before a grand jury and he might have some very interesting things to say.
