Long overdue

 

Special Counsel named to oversee inquiry on CIA leak


Attorney General John Ashcroft disqualified himself on Tuesday from any involvement in the investigation into whether Bush administration officials illegally disclosed the identity of an undercover C.I.A. officer. At the same time, the Justice Department brought in a special counsel to lead the politically charged case.

This is way overdue. The Bush League is getting yancy about the election. And -- I would guess -- they are terrified about Dr. Dean's candidacy, so they have put it out that they would love to run against him.
