no indictment for an actual crime. talk radio will be all over this.

It is actually a crime to obstruct justice, to perjure yourself, etc.

Yes it is. But they didn't get him with the original crime the prosecutor was mandated to investigate. They need a sacrificial lamb. They didn't get Rove but they got Libby. That has far as the MSM is concerned, is the beginning of the end of the Bush Era.

I think he meant underlying crime.

I seem to recall that the courts some time ago ruled on something like this...that if there was no underlying crime, can there be charges related to a 'cover up.'

I'm not sure.

Absolutely!! If convicted he should lose his license to practice law in Arkansas.

True, we insisted as much during the Clinton Administration, so we need to remain consistent.
