Let the Scooter Libby/Marc Rich comparisons commence

I'm waiting for some Bush defenders to trot out the "Bill Clinton pardoned Marc Rich" line, how when Clinton was leaving office he gave a pardon to this notorious tax cheat, probably because of the generous donations of his ex-wife.

Yes, bring it on.

Because you see, Scooter Libby was Marc Rich's lawyer! In fact, Clinton specifically cited Libby as a Republican lawyer who "reviewed and advocated" the pardon.

Yes, let's dredge up how terrible that pardon was, and how Libby supported it, and how his position in the Bush Administration might have stalled any investigation into this pardon.
