Just in case we've become such burnt-out bulbs as not to recocognize an obvious light in the darkness.

Just sayin...

3. I know, but it's only for 2.5 years...
They're letting Scooter serve all his sentences simultaneously. If Scooter were poor, Democratic, and black, I guarantee you those sentences wouldn't just be consecutive, but pretty damn long, too.

4. I am not even close to being satisfied.
He should spend at least 15 years in Angola, and his bosses much much much longer.

14. Screw 30 months, he deserves 30 years!
And what was all that shit about people writing the judge, lying like the sorry sacks of shit they all are, begging for no jailtime for an 'outstanding civil servant'?

Libby is a piece of shit, all those that wrote the judge - fuck you all, I hope you rot in Hell.

7. 2 years and a probable Pardon is nothing to be thrilled about. 30 YEARS would have made me HAPPY.
:( He has to serve only 80% of his sentence,so, the scumbag will walk in 2 years. However, the psycho-in-chief will Pardon him. IMCPO

8. It Actually Stirred Feelings Of The UnDead !!!
Edited on Tue Jun-05-07 09:38 PM by WillyT
<snip>

Libby, who did not testify during the trial, thanked the court for showing him and his defense team consideration during the proceedings. He told the judge, "It is...my hope the court will consider...my whole life."

That was it. No apology. No expression of remorse.

Then Walton sentenced Libby to 30 months in jail and a $250,000 fine. {b]Libby didn't flinch. His wife, Harriet Grant, cried. Notable conservatives in the front row of the crowded courtroom--Mary Matalin, Barbara Comstock, and Victoria Toensing--appeared shocked.

13. Typical republican....hides behind women & children
Freaking scumbags. If Scootie Wootie was so good to kids, why didn't he consider the kind of future he created for them when he outed a CIA NOC that protected ALL kids from the proliferation of nuclear weapons? SPARE me his so-called "universal love for families." And pardon me now while I go PUKE.

I just KNEW James Carville supported Libby. Is there a place one can find all of the other letters written?

9. The Booosh Regime Joins The Elite...
Scooter joins Albert Fall, H.R. Haldermann, Chuckles Colson and Robert MacFarlane as convicted Repugnicans. Congrats, Scooter, you've earned your place in history. Instead of being a little-known aparachnik, he will forever be remembered by many of us as the one of the first of many in a new crop of corrupt GOOPers who put their own interests ahead of those of the country.

Congrats to Fitz...he removed the sand from the umpire's eyes...the next step now is to follow up on all that's been revealed here.

I'm sooooooooo tired of the corporate media holding a pity party for their cocktail party buddy...about his children and his "service"...what part of lying and perjury and obstruction don't these asses in hats not get?
