As WB already noted, some would say he "lied" because of a defective memory, not out some need to protect Bush.

However, assuming Libby lied does not mean that the "reason" had anything to do with Bush or Cheney. It could have just as easily been that Libby thought he was a target of the Plame leak probe and was trying to save his own skin.
