"The Coverup Is Worse Than The Crime"
Several people have said this, in reference to Scooter Libby.
The problem is there was no crime. There was only -- supposedly -- a "coverup."
If you think there was a crime, you are wrong. Stop being wrong. There was no crime. There is no evidence of a crime. Fitzgerald declined to prosecute anyone for anything related to the leak because he had no evidence of any crime.
You can say you think there was a crime, but that's no more interesting than saying you think the moon landing was faked. It's possible, sure; just provide some evidence of it, and we can discuss it.

"It is the common fate of the indolent to see their rights become a prey to the active. The condition upon which God hath given liberty to man is eternal vigilance; which condition if he break, servitude is at once the consequence of his crime and the punishment of his guilt."
