The Most Important Case in American History?

First of all, I loved seeing DeLay's arrest photo today--keep smiling, bucky! You'll need it! Second, James Moore breaks down the Plame Case over at the Huffington Post with a most excellent article on an event I hope with flush away some of these evil turds in der White House.

The Most Important Criminal Case in American History

We may stand witness to a definitive American moment of democracy. The son of a New York doorman probably has in his hands, in many ways, the fate of the republic. Because far too many of us know and are aware of the crimes committed by our government in our name, we are unlikely to settle for a handful of minor indictments of bureaucrats. The last thing most of us believe in is the rule of law. We do not trust our government or the people we have elected but our constitution is still very much alive and we choose to believe that destiny has placed Patrick Fitzgerald at this time and this place in our history to save us from the people we elected. If the law cannot get to the truth of what has happened to the American people under the Bush administration, then we all may begin to hear the early death rattles of history’s greatest democracy.
