As if ELECTED politicians do not lie, 24-7

The more we learn, the more it appears Libby was indicted for lying to the media.

And to Mr. Fitzgerald. And to the FBI. And to the grand jurors. If Libby intentionally lied under oath, he deserves to be in hot water. I hope Bush continues to take the high road on this case because Mr. Fitzgerald appears to be an outstanding and fair-minded prosecutor.

Bush can always pardon Libby at the end of his term if he believes the facts don't support a conviction or if he wants to give Libby a break. God knows a pardon of Libby would be more warranted than Clinton's pardons for FALN terrorists, Marc Rich, Vignali and that drug-infested brother of his, Roger.

"Unless he tries to implicate someone higher up the food chain in exchange for a plea deal now that he's seen the full extent of the charges. But he's a loyalist."

But to whom is Libby loyal, New One?

Libby received two awards from the Clinton Administration in 1993. Libby worked for/at NSC during Clinton's terms. Libby's massive law firm Dechert Price reeks of "CIA front company" and has only donated campaign money to Democrats.

When reporters wanted scoop from "inside" the Bush White House, they called Scooter Libby.

Frankly, the Bush Administration is better off for having one less leaker in D.C.

...and we still don't know where Libby's loyalties reside.

Were you for or against Martha Stewart? Because this is exactly why Old Martha ended up in Jail. Now, don't be a hypocrite.

The more we learn, the more it appears Libby was indicted for lying to the media.

Or, the more we learn, the media lied about Libby.

[goldstategop]

Exactly. Bottom line - it looks like the case is about criminalizing conservative politics. When was the last time someone went to jail for disagreeing with the MSM? Unless there's more to this that Fitzgerald decided not reveal, I think the government's case is awfully weak.

Obstruction for What? Libby is charged with lying about a crime that wasn't committed.

And the media are loving it! How dare a conservative someone have the audacity to lie to them!! They're 'unbiased' and they just want to help us. They have to teach him a lesson. (Of course, none of this applies to lefties whose lies they regularly print.)
