Bush Pardons Libby

I know this probably doesn't make much of a difference to you but Bush didn't pardon Libby, he commuted his jail sentence.

I know this doesn't extract the pound of flesh after which you have lusted, but the guy isn't getting off scott-free.

I do think the entire Valerie Flamme investigation was a ridiculous partisan circus the once again demonstrated that if a Special Prosecutor is appointed and spend millions of tax-payer dollars, come hell or hig water, there will be an indictment.

Correct. It doesn't make any difference whatsoever to me.

Goody for you oral - but I trust you are capable of, at least, understanding the distinction.

Was I lusting after a pound of flesh???

Were you?

My guess is that you probably were, but surely you can appreciate that the "you" I used was not directed at any individual.

I don't see what was partisan about it. But I also don't see what was particularly partisan about Ken Starr's futile attempts to bring the rule of law to the Clinton White House.

Well then you are opthomologically challenged. At least both your left and right eyes are equally challenged.

And since the Democrats let Clinton off the hook for lying under oath, I don't see any particular reason that Bush shouldn't also let Libby off the hook.

Again, good for your sense of fair play. You are wrong, but not in a biased way.

but I trust you are capable of, at least, understanding the distinction.

Were you?
