    great post, Glenn!

    Five or ten or fifteen years from now people will go back and read the Richard Cohen, Hiatt, etc., etc., opeds and editorials and be completely unable to understand how these guys were taken in by the "Wizard of Oz"-type ploys used by Karl Rove. It's truly depressing and sad that the U.S. has fallen to this level. Hopefully a slow but painful comeback is still possible after complete "De-Bushification."

    In the meantime, all I can say is that if Libby can't do the time he shouldn't have done the time.
