Parents' revenge?
The recent D.C. indictments puzzle me. Even the special prosecutor acknowledges that the expectation of a crime didn't pan out (anyway, Plame and Wilson spoke about her job themselves) so I have a problem: If the indicted crime is 'covering up', how can it be criminal to cover something up that isn't a crime? I'm not crazy about the implications if this is basically the ultimate parent's revenge, as in "it's not whether you bit your sister that bothers me, it's that you lied about it"?
