Yeah ,if that was anyone else they'd be in prison. It only proves if you got money than you get a free pass from jail mad

But Paris was a freak case anyway. She had money but the judge was smart enough to make her goto jail. O' Jay Simpson has a ton of money and he still hasn't paid anything in his civil suit (and he should be in jail as far as I'm concerned). But everyone in politics should be in jail, they all lie and are jerks.

Libby is not independently wealthy and is actually in serious debt now. Much of his financing for lawyers were paid by donations and friends for he hadn't the money. All Libby was charged with was lying under oath, and something else, which are bad offenses, but aren't the worst offenses in the world. He wasn't even convicted of the crime he was sent to trial for.

We learned it was Richard Armitage that accidentally leaked the name, not Libby.

I am just curious, did everyone show the same degree of rightous indignation when William Jefferson Clinton committed the same offense (purjury) and cut a plea deal after he got out of office whereby he did no jail time, was fined and I think lost his license to practice law for several years. What is fair for slick willie should be fair for scooter too.

outing a CIA agent was not the charge and as far as I have heard he did not do the outing. The charge was perjury, for both scotter and slick willie. Of course one was a liberal and one was a conservative so of course we should look the other way for the liberal and crusify the liberal, gee what ever happened to EQUAL justice under the law.

Eye, eye,
We still have one indoctrinated Bushy, but the true believers are shrinking as most have thrown their indoctrination hand books in the trash next to the copies of "Mein Kaump"!

I don't understand where this becomes a conservative or liberal thing. It's a matter of LAW. I don't see Clinton or Libby going to jail which prove that you can do what you want if you have money and friends in high places. This is where the Equality ends.
Go ahead and perjure yourself and see what happens. I dare ya. Prove me wrong.:wink:

garden ...you should really do something about that liberal mindset
you have...the previous post is right..it is about the law..plain & simple..


another reminder..I'm not democrat or republican...I vote libertarian
or constitution party...or any other 3rd party that will fight for the
middle class of this country...I consider 99% of our current congress
as criminals...through their collective inaction...

garden can you tell me why. every time a repubican gets in trouble. the first thing you people bring up is clinton . please get over clinton. as for libby i,m sure lieing about a war losing over three thousand soilders is the same as getting a blowjob.your right in the whitehouse is coming to and end real soon.
