The Beauty of the Internet
The Beauty of the Internet
http://grokgov.com is a new and classic example of how the Internet can fill a void heretofore unfilled. The Scooter Libby Indictment is the perfect case.
Breathtaking in complexity and implication, it is nearly impossible to communicate, completely, currently, and simply. The grokgov concept is somewhere between a Newsweek magazine diorama, and Wikipedia.
It would have taken me hours I don’t have to get up-to-speed on this case.
Having scoured the Internet in vain, in hopes of being able to avoid reading the entire Libby indictment, a friend who prefers to remain anonymous, decided to save the rest of us the agony, and “lay†it out for our convenience.
Thank you “Gman.â€
There are several legal investigations underway that are of serious importance to all Americans. These investigations are complex, especially if you don’t speak legalese - but they’re too important to ignore.
This site tries to help people understand, or grok, these important cases.
The grokgov.com name is derived from the successful groklaw.net
site. Grok basically means to understand.
We hope you’ll also walk away understanding why these cases are important to you, and being able to explain to others why they’re important to them.
We’re starting by explaining the Scooter Libby Indictment.
Once we get some help, we will be moving on to other investigations and issues:
Explaining the Tom DeLay indictment
Recent FISA violations
Volunteers Needed
We need lawyers, paralegals and law students to help out with this concept.
