Here are the facts that the trail brought out.
Libby learned of Plame through the VP.
Libby lied under oath claiming a reporter told him.
So the question is why did Libby feel it necessary to lie about what the VP told him unless he was worried a crime was committed or was told directly from someone higher up to lie.
An additional piece of information is Libby was not the first source as it was Armtage. However, from the lies it appears that Libby believed he was the first source to the reporters.
