Paul Begala is higher than a kite on CNN. The Libby indictment has triggered his surprisingly sensitive conscience, inspiring a newfound distaste for perjury in the course of answering questions about a noncrime. He declares that Libby's indictment "will consume the rest of the Bush presidency." When Human Events editor Terry Jeffrey pointed out that the underlying matter here is substanceless political nonsense, Begala shushed him, saying that "perjury" is the issue.
