Too much power, no oversight {except the eagle eyes of the press}.

Well, I for one plan to keep an eye on this matter. Perhaps the non-mainstream media (e.g., Freepers, bloggers, et al.) can help get justice for Mr. Libby. After all, it was the little guys who outed CBS and Dan Rathernot over those forged documents.
And one more thing: I don't know a whole lot about Attorney Tate other than his firm and Martindale bios as posted here, but I know his firm is a prestigious heavy hitter. Sounds to me like Attorney Libby has chosen his counsel well. At least, he didn't get the OJ Simpson dream team. (Ugh)
For the truly bored, {yet want to be informed} the following url will take you to the US Code, that will show the detail of the law that fittzy is using:
