Scooter Libby was the scapegoat. The mastermind is Cheney, who needs to be put on trial himself.

not me personally my step dad pays over 10 percent of his paycheck into health insurance and they don't cover his back medication even though he was on disability for a year. Not to mention they don't cover chiropractor appointments

Yeah, my dad had hip replacement surgery... at 44 years old... he had to fight tooth and nail for over a year to get them to cover it...
but he got it... so happy.
It shouldn't be like that... you shouldn't have to endure something like for so long, ESPECIALLY since you pay taxes AND have health insurance... its a big fucked country... and it's just getting worse... Bush has the power to declare Marshall Law (as given by Congress, for any such reason's as, Public Disturbances, or [and this is verbatim] "Other reason") and postpone the '08 elections... lets see if he doesnt do it...
but he got it... so happy.

No -- I think it's proof that the United States of America is run by gangsters, and that's definitely not a good thing.
Bush will never, ever be held accountable for his actions. I'm moving to some Socialist country like Sweden.

On February 12, 2007, Bob Woodward testified that "former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage disclosed the identity of a C.I.A. agent to him in June 2003". Mr. Libby is nothing more than the target of an uncontrolled Special Counsel whose only interest was getting Cheney or Bush. What if this was you? This type of thing should scare ALL of you; regardless of party affiliation. The real person who should be focused on is Armitage.
The woman was not even a covert agent at the time Armitage spoke about her to Woodward. Her own husband was speaking openly about her in terms of being a CIA agent throughout the time period in question.
These are the facts ( as opposed to the mainstream media B.S.)
Wonder if anyone remembers the Clinton Era?

You people do realize this isn't just a 'Bush' administration atrocity?
Clinton issued over 100 pardons when he left office - including crimes ranging from child pornography, bank fraud, drug trafficking, etc. This is in addition to the pardons he executed while in office and not his last days.
Just trying to be fair here.

yeah we know. we have a choice between voting for wimps and assholes, but wimps won't get us all killed (hopefully). But none of it very good.
No no no, we have a choice between dicks and pussies.

Yes, there was never a highly partisan probe into the actions of the President during the Clinton era.
Clinton's pardoning a few of his cronies from jail is a FAR CRY from what the Bush administration is doing. You are clearly missing the point here.
Genius Gone Insane: I am not trying to defend Bush, but the Clinton family is nearly as corrupt, and certainly prone to lying. Lying about fucking an intern and "Whitewatergate" are on a different level than the current middle east nightmare, but as far as liberal politicians go, the Clintons should not be held as the gold standard. Look into Bill's dealings with CIA drug runner Barry Seal (who began his military career in the Civil Air Patrol with likely JFK assassination conspirators David Ferrie and Lee Oswald).
But this is not the first, or the most controversial pardon issued by a Bush. Please check out this article which describes the Presidential pardon doled out to Caspar "True American Patriot" Weinberger and several others as part of the Iran Contra affair. The language used is almost verbatim to what his Son uses today. But the elder Bush was, in my opinion, effectivley pardoning himself rather than his vice president.

No, that's exactly my point. People are using this as a stepping stone to launch an all out attack at Bush just because they hate him and are looking for something that sounds horrible as justification. Yet few people even understand the issue. Libby is not the source of the CIA leak. This is confirmed. Armitage is the source of the leak. Libby was convicted of obstruction of justice, perjury, and lying to federal investigators. However, people are somehow associating him with the leak (The media, politicians, everywhere).
I think the much bigger issue to get angry about is why no one is talking about Armitage. This would be like us going after Arthur Anderson for Enron, yet ignoring Enron even though they were the ones committing fraud.
And my comment about Clinton - he was impeached (though not convicted) because of what - obstruction of justice and perjury. Should we even bring in the controversy of how on the even of the impeachment vote, Clinton bombed Iraq?
This is how politics has always been. I still find it funny people somehow have this magical view the US was loved by the world before Bush was president. And that every administration before this never tried to save itself, never used pardons (when Bush still hasn't pardoned him - only commuted), and everything else.
FDR is now viewed as one of the most respected presidents in history. Yet at the time, he was threatened with impeachment for shipping supplies to the Brits and possibly trying to drag them into the war.
I'm just curious to see how we'll look back at this in 50 years.

As a neutral outsider, I'd like to point out that there's a pretty big difference between fucking an intern (I fail to see how this is even an issue) and starting a war under false pretenses.
Afghanistan was justified, and I support that mission. Iraq has turned into what military types classify as a "clusterphuk." Time to get the fuck out of Dodge.
