It was quite alarming when Scooter Libby was convicted by a jury of his peers for lying to a Federal Grand Jury (or was it the FBI?). It was even more alarming when a federal judge, appointed by President Bush because he was so tough on crime, gave Libby a stiff sentence.
Doesn't that judge understand how government works? The president and his staff are supposed to lie to investigators. I mean they have been doing it for years, we thought everyone knew it was their job or something. Someone has to make the Jack Nicholson decisions, the ones that "you can't handle!".
Thank goodness for President Bush. Today, during the 4th of July holiday week, Bush honored all American patriots by commuting Libby's prison sentence.
President Bush understands that prison is for poor people. Prison is for black people and mexicans. White people just can't handle prison, unless they are poor or Nazi's or both.
No sir, prison is too hard for rich white people like Bush's staff and friends. Think of Libby's wife and children? They would be so sad if Libby was punished for his felonies. It's just unfair!
Now that justice is done, my only regret is that Libby was not given a complete pardon. With a felony on his record, he cannot run for president himself like Nelson Mandella did. Oh well, one cant have it all.
