There on the front page of the New York Times you see photos of three key players in the Libby trial.
-Patrick Fitzgerald, the special prosecutor
-Dick Cheney, the defendant's boss
-Dennis Collins, the jury foreman
Where else can you see a private citizen lined up as an equal with high powered people like Fitzgerald and Cheney? Did I say equal? He and his fellow jurors were able to evaluate the arguments of the prosecutor and pass judgement on the defendant. Sounds like more than an equal.
A group of private citizens were able to check the power of the White House.
