Dear President Bush:

[heidi]

You make me sick.


But I think you already knew that.

My God, you're worse than Nixon.

Here's what Shrub said:

But I have concluded that the prison sentence given to Mr. Libby is excessive. Therefore, I am commuting the portion of Mr. Libby's sentence that required him to spend thirty months in prison.

If it's *excessive* then you wait until he's served three or six or twelve months, and you commute it *then*.

You don't say that the fines and "damage" to his reputation are sufficient punishment if you think it's excessive.

He should serve *something*.

And he won't serve a day.

Mockery, Mr Bush. You've made a mockery of this country. And you make me sick.

I can't wait for various members of the Republican establishment say things that are 180 degrees off from what they said when Bill Clinton was impeached because of perjury allegations.

Fred Thompson is one...

And now, the President had washed under the rug any involvement he and The Dick had in the Plame case. Some might actually call that...ummm...obstruction of justice. But hey, when you're a war criminal, what's a little legal mumbo jumbo?

The thing that is nice about this, apart from the actual convolution that both sides put on the Fitzgerald investigation, is that it is so straight forward. Bush, the least likely to pardon anyone in 100 years, commutes Libby's sentence and, more than likely now, will pardon him as he goes out the door. He wouldn't sign stays of execution for mentally challenged inmates in Texas, but he thinks obstructing justice and perjury in a National Security case just isn't bad enough to deserve the 30 measly months that Scooter got.

Sometimes a President has bad luck and sometimes he brings that luck upon himself. Some legacy eh?
