Hmmm - let me see.
First of all, Clinton was never convicted.
Second, Clinton, under oath, stated that a affadavit from Monica saying there was no sexual relationship was true. That affadavit had been suborned by Vernon Jordan and Clinton KNOWINLY said it was true - that is why he subsequently did the "meaning of IS" defense.
Whereas Libby is being indicted for discrepencies in his statements regarding two conversations he had with reporters - and those discrepencies did little to affect the overlying case (which yielded NO indictments on the initial charge, the entire reason for Fitzgerald doing the investigation in the first place).
So the charges are the same. But the underlying facts are vastly different.
"Whereas Libby is being indicted for discrepencies in his statements regarding two conversations he had with reporters - and those discrepencies did little to affect the overlying case (which yielded NO indictments on the initial charge, the entire reason for Fitzgerald doing the investigation in the first place)."
This will get lost in the shuffle. But "process crimes" should be material. This was not, since there was no underlying crime.
Fitzgerald wants to be famous. Wants to be loved by our one party establishment.
I should have used the word impeached.
I replied on another board and used impeached, I just wrote it wrong here.
He was charged with additional charges, but was impeached on the two I listed.
