The Scooter Libby Trial Explained

Nicholas Lehman's blurb in the New Yorker is well worth reading.  I love the concluding sentence.  So apt, and so condemning.  (and then there is Jon Stewart's explanation).

There's a great Op-Ed piece in today's NY Times by Frank Rich called "Why Dick Cheney Cracked Up", along the same lines, but with a slightly different take. It's premium content but well worth picking up the paper to read. Thanks for the link.

Here is another recent article that aurgues that there is a strong case for impeachment I don't much about that so it is wishful thinking on my part.

here is quote

"“At length, Martin explained how she, Libby and Deputy National Security Adviser Steve Hadley worked late into the night writing a statement to be issued by George Tenet in 2004 in which the CIA boss would take blame for the bogus claim in Bush’s State of the Union address that Iraq was seeking nuclear material in Africa. After ‘delicate’ talks, Tenet agreed to say the CIA ‘approved’ the claim and ‘I am responsible’—but even that disappointed Martin, who had wanted Tenet to say that ‘we did not express any doubts about Niger.’ ” Tenet later was awarded the nation’s highest civilian honor, the Presidential Medal of Freedom."

I think the trial illustrates the great truth of our time, when in trouble, don't lie to the FBI, you always get caught for that and not for what you did, ie Martha Stewart and many others.
