Beware Immunity for Rove and Company

In the last month, three lawyers at TalkLeft (Last Night in Little Rock and Peter G (comments) and me) have warned about congressional hearings into RoveGate and the possibility that a la Oliver North, it might enable Bush administration wrongdoers to escape criminal liablility.

Crooks and Liars reports that today, Sen. Frank Lautenberg expressed a similar warning in this letter to the Republican chairmen of the House and Senate intelligence committees regarding hearings they plan to hold on Valerie Plame's outing.
