Default Lewis Libby spared jail - 04-07-2007, 10:49

George Bush has commuted convicted perjurer and former aide of dick cheney lewis libby's jail sentence. This just goes to show what a bunch of criminals the people in the whitehouse are, it's the kind of thing you would expect in a tinpot dictatorship or banana republic.
He hasn't ruled out a complete pardon either.

Olbermann: Bush, Cheney should resign - Countdown with Keith Olbermann - MSNBC.com

What worries me most is that I get the impression (looking from the outside in) that most Americans just don't care about all this.

I think the "breaking news" banner on that website said it all "American wins hot dog-eating title over 6-time Japanese champ"

forget politics, USA #1 woo! etc etc

yeah and less than a month ago the Conservative leaning Supreme court confirmed that a similar case with:

Same Back Ground (military rather than Government public service), no prior convictions, exact same offence etc etc was a fair sentance. And he got 3 months more than Scooter.
