Plamegate -- is that still going on?

Patrick Fitzgerald is losing the Lewis Libby case, at least where basic fairness is concerned. Prosecutors are obligated to provide the defense with all exculpatory information in their possession. If he doesn't have proof that Plame's employment by the CIA was classified, why does it matter whether Libby lied or not?

Update: Byron York's comment, linked above, is to the effect that Fitzgerald's position may be an unconstitutional delegation of the power of the Attorney General. Andy McCarthy is arguing against that.
