Good segment! It nice sums up the whole Libby saga.
I hate to sound uninformed, but just what information did Scooter Libby leak? And what was done that violated the Constitution? I do not remember either of those things ever being reported or asserted in the trial or regarding the commutation of the prison sentence. Did I miss something? What would be the charge for impeachment? Has the president committed a crime? I suppose I missed that too. I really need to get out more.
In response to the previous poster: you ask: Has the president committed a crime? Uh, how about lying the nation into a reckless, immoral, illegal war that has resulted in the deaths of over 650,000 Iraqi men, women and children?
re: >> I really need to get out more.
Yes, you definitely do need to get out more. Oh, and turn off Rush and read some real news for a change. Educate yourself and stop being an ignorant Ditto-Head who gets all his news and views from Rush/Drudge/Fox.
