Default Libby "Guilty"

"WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Former White House aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby has been found guilty on four of five counts in his perjury and obstruction of justice trial. Libby, 56, faces a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison and a fine of $1 million. The five-count indictment against the former aide to Vice President Dick Cheney alleges perjury, obstruction of justice and making false statements to the FBI and a grand jury investigating how Valerie Plame was outed as a CIA operative."

>>>Ouch!

What do you think the odds are he'll get a pardon when Bush leaves office?

Also keep in mind this trial was just a distraction to keep eyes away from the real party. This fine and sentence was because he helped block people from getting to Bush and Cheney.

Didn't he write romance novels before getting into politics? If so I imagine he can go back to his former career while in prison.

So.. George, how soon after you get finished celebrating are you going to demand they file charges on the man who admitted that he outed Plame?

THT... When are you going to demand they go after Joe Wilson?

Deadshot, I thought you were all about people uniting these days? But I see now it's all politics as usual..

>>>I'm sure that deal has already been struck. Without it, Libby'd be pissing all over Bush and Cheney.

The real crime here is that there is a grown man who goes by the name...Scooter.
