Charles Stimson, deputy assistant secretary of defense for detainee affairs, says there should be a boycott of law firms defending Gitmo detainees. Too bad one of those firms, Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison is representating Scooter Libby in his trial that starts Monday.

Guess Scooter won't be honoring the boycott.

The widespread pushback against Stimson's little piece of thuggery has been amazing. One more way in which this administration is alienating even its allies in the ruling establishment.
