This sentence made me laugh the most:
The trial judge too acted politically, when he imposed the harshly excessive sentence on Libby, virtually provoking the president into commuting it.
In the world according to Dershowitz, this was supposed involve a lengthy appeal process while Libby was on bail, with George W. Bush doing the obvious and pardoning him during his lame duck period at the end of his term with the appeal not resolved. Apparently, not letting Libby run out the clock with his appeal provoked Bush into pardoning Libby, as if it were the president's only real choice. (12:58 AM)
