Meltdown at Justice

There is a lameness emanating from the Department of Justice that is evident in three must-read pieces today. First is Michael Barone’s column contrasting the prosecutions of Sandy Berger and Scooter Libby. Second is Josh Gerstein’s New York Sun article on the runaround the Department of Justice has given Rep. Tom Davis (R-VA) on its stalled leak investigations. The Sun article includes a link to Rep. Davis’s letter to Alberto Gonzales. Third is the Wall Street Journal’s editorial “Meltdown at Justice,” on the FBI’s failure to provide adequate supervision of the issuance of national security letters. The “meltdown at Justice” is represented in all three of these pieces today.
