People-Powered Wilson

You've probably seen that Joe Wilson and Valerie Plame Wilson are launching a civil suit in the hopes of holding those who violated their privacy and constitutional rights accountable. Their web site is www.WilsonSupport.org.
This lawsuit is important if you believe in accountability and checks on power. There is a strong incentive for Bush to pardon Scooter Libby, and if he does so, there will literally be no accountability for the dishonest smear campaigns and the lies that have so weakened America and killed hundreds of thousands around the world.
And unless there is accountability, something like the war in Iraq will happen again.
