Um, until we know whom it targeted and for what alleged crimes AND how good the evidence is, it doesn’t prove anything.

Scooter Libby’s jail time had nothing to do with central purpose of the Plame investigation, for example. It was just a perjury trap to ensnare someone, anyone at the White House on anything at all, when the person who actually revealed Plame’s identity was a) not in the White House, b) not a friend of the people the investigator was trying to ensnare at the White House, c) not even charged with anything, and c) known from the beginning of that never-ending fustercluck.

Scooter Libby testified truthfully to the best of his memory. It caught him in a perjury trap. Even at the time the special prosecutor Fitzgerald knew the leaker was Richard Armitage.

This was a total miscarriage of justice and Fitzgerald is pond scum in the extreme. Scooter Libby had no reason to lie. He was caught in a perjury trap by Fitzgerald. The office of a special prosecutor is a very bad thing. If the head of the Justice Department can not be impartial in a prosecution it is time for a new head of the Justice Department.

At high levels of justice in Washington DC there is little justice.
