I tell you one thing, unless this deal explicitly calls for him to admit that he knowingly did wrong -- that this wasn't just some "inadvertant accident" on his part -- that he took the documents because he didn't want the world to know what they revealed -- then it's a whitewash.
I wouldn't count on that, however. I suspect that the fix is in again for the rich and powerful.
He and Clinton will down a few scotches together in a private upstairs room at the "library" and laugh like good old boys about the scrapes they managed to wiggle out of, thanks to money, influence, and prosecutors who are just as corrupt as the defendants. (Clinton's "prosecutors" was the Senate, or as P.J. calls them, the "Parliment of Whores.") It makes me sick!
Pete Williams on MSNBC said the striking thing about the plea is he will plead to "knowingly" taking the documents.
