Bush throws another shovelful of dirt on America

Libby doesn't go to jail. Bush bails his buddy out. Surprise surprise.
Criminals work with criminals. Law and order is the new American myth

And impeachment is still off the table I guess.

In a written statement commuting the jail sentence, issued hours after Monday's ruling, Bush called the sentence "excessive," and suggested that Libby will pay a big enough price for his conviction.

"The consequences of his felony conviction on his former life as a lawyer, public servant, and private citizen will be long-lasting," he said.

The President, who has been under great pressure to pardon Libby, said Libby was given "a harsh sentence based in part on allegations never presented to the jury."

When will congress open their eyes?
