GUILTY!

Scooter Libby has been found guilty by a reasonably moronic Washington, D.C. jury who apparently didn't understand that (a) Valerie Plame's identity was no secret, her husband having revealed the nature of her job in his own "Who's Who" entry, (b) others have revealed that THEY, not Scooter Libby were broadcasting her identity and these people were no friends of the current administration, and (c) not remembering is not obstruction of justice!

Since I have read a great deal of the testimony, it boggles my mind that this jury could come to this erroneous conclusion AND take so doggone long to do it!

But then, the law and justice really don't have one heck of a lot to do with one another, do they?

You don't understand that

a. Libby wasn't charged with revealing Plame's identity;

b. Others weren't on trial here, Libby was;

c. Libby didn't testify that he didn't remember something, so how would the jury know that?

We both know under the same set of facts if Libby was a Democrat working in a Democrat administration you'd be jumping up and down for joy that he was convicted.

This is further evidence you put party before country.

The prosecutor knew BEFORE he ever spoke to or charged Libby that ARMITAGE was the leaker. The investigation should have ended there! But then that wouldn't have made that pissant Fitzgerald famous, would it?

Rwanda? It would be nice if GW did something about Darfur today.

Fitzgerald is considered highly ethical and non partisan by democrats and republicans alike. Jeez, you people will attack anyone that isn't in your cult.

You are completely AMORAL!
