So are its actors, hotels, restaurants and construction workers. As well as the media, including the lefty Times and the righty Post, not to mention TIME, and all the television networks (including the anchors).

...Before Goodling, 33, can assert the Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination, she must believe that her testimony could somehow lead to evidence that she committed a crime. So what's the crime she's worried about? The mention of Libby suggests that it's perjury, but as Professor Orin Kerr, a criminal law expert at George Washington Law School, points out, you can't take the Fifth to avoid being prosecuted for lies you plan to tell under oath...
