Ramos and Compean actually committed crimes.
The two cases aren't the same.
Davila was a DEA informant involved in House of Slaughter murders.
Shooting a fleeing illegal drug dealing alien in the butt is not a crime to most of us.
Libby is a friend of Bush.
Ramos and Compean were doing their jobs, which interfered with Bush's plan to let every illegal across the border. They are a message to other border patrol agents to not actually do their job.
You're right, the two cases aren't the same.
Ramos and Compean were railroaded, big time.
So you actually believe that Lou Dobbs would go on national television day after day asking, and demanding, that these border agents be set free, if in fact they were guilty?
We are talking CNN here. I don’t think so. But hey, try again. Libby was railroaded all right. And heaven forbid if he ever decided to sing.
Actually, lying under oath is a crime.
No, it was Davila-Aldrete who committed a crime, and Sutton sat by for at least two years while he committed it repreatedly.
Agreed.
Ramos and Compean actually committed crimes.
Yeah they committed the crime of actually enforcing the border.
The two cases aren't the same.
Right. Libby never got on the wrong side of the Mexican President.
