Dershowitz for the Defense

   Interesting. [1]Alan Dershowitz, Robert Bork, and 7 other legal
   scholars are coming to the defense of Scooter Libby. They content that
   the Libby [DEL: prosecution :DEL] persecution was probably
   unConstitutional.

   I have felt for years that independent prosecutors are
   Constitutionally and politically dubious. But I never saw a case that
   showed what a complete joke they are than this ridiculous prosecution
   of Scooter Libby, who was an idiot playing inappropriate CYA over what
   turned out not to be a crime or even particularly unethical.

   So. Joe Wilson's been proven to be a liar, Valerie Plame's credibility
   has proven shattered, and now finally a group of legal scholars, left
   and right, are coming out swinging against that idiot Patrick
   Fitzgerald.

   I should make popcorn.
