WASHINGTON (CNN) — Rep. Cynthia McKinney apologized on the House floor Thursday for a confrontation with a Capitol Police officer last week.

“There should not have been any physical contact in this incident,” McKinney said.

“I am sorry that this misunderstanding happened at all, and I regret its escalation and I apologize,” she said surrounded by colleagues on the House floor.

She said she would vote for a resolution expressing support for the efforts of Capitol Police. (Watch McKinney express her regret Thursday — :43)

A decision on whether the Georgia congresswoman will be charged could come as early as next week, federal law enforcement sources said.

Court documents: Libby testified that Bush OK’d

intelligence leak

WASHINGTON
(CNN) — Vice President Dick Cheney’s former top aide testified that
President Bush authorized the release of parts of a classified report
on Iraq to rebut criticism of the case for the 2003 invasion, federal
prosecutors disclosed in documents released Thursday.

The information did not name CIA agent Valerie Plame, whose 2003 exposure
triggered an investigation that led to the indictment of I. Lewis
“Scooter” Libby.

Libby is charged with perjury, obstruction of justice and lying to FBI agents investigating Plame’s exposure. Her
outing came just days after her husband, former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, had publicly questioned Bush’s assertion that Iraq had sought uranium from Africa for a nuclear weapons program, prosecutors in
Libby’s case told a federal judge. (Watch what the court document says Libby said about Bush — 3:05)

Wilson’s account of a 2002 trip to Niger to investigate the Iraqi uranium allegations “was viewed in the Office of Vice President as a direct attack on the credibility of the vice president (and the president) on
a matter of signal importance: the rationale for the war in Iraq,” special prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald wrote. (Read the court papers — PDF)
