Fred,
when I read your posts, I wonder if the far-left and the far-right meet eachother “on the other side”… It looks like there are some basic thoughts both have in common…
6, Ted, you partially answered your own wonderment.
The other part of this is that NO one was even charged with outing Plame. In fact, it has not been proven that a law was even broken visa vis Plame. This is a process crime. It is small potatoes compared to Clinton and to the actual outing of a covert agent or exposing a secret operation that was netting terrorists.
Had Fitzgerald simply charged Armitage with the crime, then Scooter would not have even been spoken to would he? Instead, Armitage confessed and then 2 months later, Fitz talks to him(Scooter) and many others, without ever revealing to us that Armitage had confessed…Fitz wasted a bunch of our money for no good reason…
Libby did commit perjury, therefore he does deserve his punishment….
What I find interesting is how Libby was not allowed to introduce expert witnesses on memory, nor were the inconsistencies in the testimony of the government witnesses called into question. As for Libby committing perjury the same as Clinton, I’m willing to give Libby the benefit of the doubt seeing as the inconsistencies in his testimony was as to which day he spoke to someone on a topic two years previously, versus Bill Clinton claiming to not having had sex with a woman he had received fellatio from multiple times. I can see forgetting a day or date, but forgetting that you received a BJ in the oval office? I thought Ronald Reagan was the one suffering from Alzheimer’s in the 90s.
What really angers me is the way in which the (in)Justice department brokered a sweetheart deal with Sandy Berger for committing an actual theft and destruction of classified government documents from the national archives, but tried to throw the book at Libby for a faulty memory.
Guys it over with the system will soon start to eat you all alive.:oops:
Fred, what did you just say?
I’m sure that the nickname “scooter” will win him many new friends in prison.

AKD, just wait for Democrats getting their turns in prison. We’ll see what smart remarks you have then.
Libby commited perjury, plain and simple.
I don’t understand how folks can chide Clinton for doing the same thing yet in the same breath excuse Libby.
The difference is thatLibby is getting what he deseved, and Clinton did not.
