WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Vice President Dick Cheney should testify before Congress about his role in the leaking of a CIA agent's identity, former White House spokesman Scott McClellan told members of the House Judiciary Committee on Friday...

McClellan also testified that he was asked at the behest of Bush and Cheney to provide assurances to the media that Libby was not involved in the leak of Plame Wilson's identity...

Libby "assured me in unequivocal terms that he was not, meaning the leaking of Valerie Plame's identity to any reporters, and then I contacted reporters to let them know about that information," McClellan said. "But it was Andy Card that had directed me to do that, at the request of the president and vice president."
