The Sirens Blare

Drudge highlights a NY Times story that says Lewis "Scooter" Libby will be indicted tomorrow for making false statements to a grand jury.

When President Clinton was impeached, I believed that perjury was a serious charge, no matter what one was lying about.

I still do.

So if Libby made false statements under oath, then he should be charged. It should be interesting watching people like Paul Begala, who argued perjury wasn't that big a deal when Clinton was charged with it, now portray it as a dire threat to the republic.

On an unrelated note, why on earth did Libby keep the nickname "Scooter?" Seriously, that's one of the worst nicknames for a top government official I've ever heard.
