Editorial on the Possible Libby Pardon

A good read at the Dark Wraith Forums on the "Scooter" Libby Pardon.


Editorial:
The Pardon Problem by Dark Wraith


from it:

Granted a Presidential pardon, then, Mr. Libby would be an extraordinary legal danger to those in the White House who directed, participated in, or subsequently obstructed the investigation of the Valerie Plame Scandal. A Presidential pardon broad enough to protect Mr. Libby would turn him into a veritable treasure trove of information awaiting responsible congressional and law enforcement authorities willing and able to fully extract from him what he most certainly knows about the possible criminal acts of Administration officials who, in their wildly imaginative case for war, used the power of their offices to wreck those who knew they were lying.



Here's another take on it by Frank Rich titled: Why Libby's Pardon is a Slam Dunk
