BOO HOO..........................at least he didn't pardon muderers like Clinton did back onto the streets. We all knew this was coming. No surprise. They have been many worse pardons. And this really wasn't a pardon. He is still a convicted felon and has to pay a huge fine. He just spared him jail time. BIG difference.

Who are you kidding here? We all "knew" this was coming. . .instead of the long statements from the White House about not interfering with a criminal investigation or the appeal?

And since the King hasn't ruled out a complete pardon. . .yet. . .what's a measly little fine that is easily covered by the neo-con legal defense fund, which has a nice $5 million stashed away for Libby's defense? Hmm...wasn't that Fred Thompson character on that committee raising the money, too?

Ah well...just think . . .if he violates the probation, what will happen to him. . .he'll get a new office as punishment?

Now I thought conservatives were gonna show the country all about a commitment to truth, justice, the rule of law, and "values."

At this point comparing Clinton to Bush seems well......I would compare him to Carter instead.

wow, I can't believe how much Olberman has aged. I remeber watching him when i was a young kid on sports cetner. he was awesome...one of the guys that really set the table for what sports center has become....part sports/part comedy.

To say that Olberman could put the smackdown on anyone is a fucking joke. Olberman is one small intellectual notch above Nancy Grace. The guy is a douche of the worst kind. Funniest thing is, you can tell he practices his facial expressions in the mirror. what a tool.

"...and we did that with which history tasked us, we enveloped our president in 2001, and those who did not believe he should be elected...willingly lowered their voices and assented to the sacred oath of nonpartisanship...."

First off, that is dead fucking wrong. Olberman and everyone like him have been bitching since day one. Second off, how fucking cheesy can you get? Sacred oath of nonpartisanship?? Are you just talking out of your ass??

I'd be interested to know if Olberman thinks Clinton should have served 30 months for his perjury, considering he obviously thinks Libby should.

It's comical to see anyone defend this administration, I must admit I respect your loyalties to the Republican party but at this moment there is nothing to be proud of....

It's so bad that Blair had to quit because of his support....sort of....

Amazing how some conveniently forget small facts such as this, eh?

WTH are you on about?

Libby's fine was $250K. Thompson has raised tons more than that. Libby won't pay a cent of his own money.

Bush will pardon him anyway. Hell, he only leaked state secrets, compromising the middle east CIA WMD program.

brogers

Libby was convicted of a procedural crime, not leaking 'state secrets, compromising the middle east CIA WMD program.'

kbm8795

Yes...because lying to the FBI, committing perjury, and obstruction of an investigation are such core "family" values. That jury of seven women and four men, who deliberated for ten days, couldn't possibly be more capable than our King, who also appointed himself the arbiter for appropriate sentencing.

Ironically, King Bush, in commuting the prison sentence, gave Libby exactly what his lawyers asked for in the courtroom after the guilty verdict, ruling over the judge's decision. Naturally, the King hasn't ruled out a full pardon.

No but marc rich was..............and clinton pardoned him. But it doesn't matter. Liberals will always see it different no matter what the circumstances are.

Who was Mark Rich's attorney? Why. . .Scooter Libby.

Conservatives seem to be good at memorizing talking points, but leaving out the rest of the story. Is that what we call patriotism now?

lnvanry

its about time

R U serious?....he's been bashing Bush for 6 years. THere isn't anything new about Keith slamming Bush. Its actually his MO.

Bash Bush
Bash Oreilly
Bash FOX news...and some how make the three into the "worst people....in the world!"

It's about the comparison to Richard Nixon and the resignation and the historical context of the office.

busyLivin

that video was almost comical.. "party before the nation" what a fucking joke. Democrats blow a load everytime someone dies in Iraq.. everytime a bomb goes off their smile grows & their grip on 2008 tightens & they know it.

This guy is a fucking pathetic clown. Kind of funny that he thinks he's saying something important.. it's said daily by the same people. How is it about time?

dg806

Are you fucking serious? Thats hilarious. Guesss if you think Libby is guilty, you got to believe Marc was too!! So proves my point!

kbm8795

Uh...don't you have that the wrong way around? Now tell us again what conservatives were bringing to the government that was so much more enlightened, so much more concerned about honesty and integrity, so much more dedicated to "values."

kbm8795

Well, I'm assuming you aren't very old, because you apparently don't recall the America which existed before these last couple of elections. . .which is why Olbermann used examples that went back before your time. For any public commentator to be asking for the President's resignation isn't something most Americans take lightly. . .but then this wasn't a blue dress and a blowjob, either.

Now why would "Democrats blow a load everytime someone dies in Iraq.. everytime a bomb goes off their smile grows & their grip on 2008 tightens & they know it?" Could it have anything to do with one of the most inept, irresponsible, unrepentant, incapable Administrations which ever stepped before a microphone in the White House?

If Republicans lose the next election, it won't be simply because of the war - and the party has worked overtime shooting itself on most issues, including the amazing inability to accept any responsibility when they fuck up. Your party has a clown car full of old white men running next year - half of whom think The Flintstones is an historical documentary, most of whom have committed biblical adultery while they bleat about "family values," and none of whom have a clue about what anyone thinks beyond the fringe they serve.

"Party before Nation" sounds just about right.

dg806

And the democrats are different how??

kbm8795

This is exactly what you don't seem to get - your party ran two campaigns whining about the "moral" decay of America and how electing conservatives to government would re-establish trust and dignity to our public offices. That isn't what we got. So instead of facing that reality, all we get now is the fingerpointing, the grade school whining "but THEY did it eight years ago."

Who the fuck cares about "back then?" Republicans wanted the power and they proved themselves to be exactly what they claimed the Democrats were - and sometimes worse. Public trust in the government is at - or near- an all-time low. The American public can't even trust their own media or the news any longer. They can't believe in the court system, because your party just encouraged suspicions that the elite gets special treatment. They can't trust their Congress, because obstructing legislation for partisan purposes is more important than getting anything done for the American people. And they sure as hell can't trust the King in the White House - he can't even speak in a complete sentence.

All the whining about the "liberals" and the "Democrats" didn't do shit for the American public. . .it only established some parallel universe for conservatives to present nothing more than their own whiney talking points, no matter what cost to the nation. Your party doesn't even believe enough in the American people to provide them all of the information to make their own minds up - because the Party is more important. So what the hell have conservatives given this nation? A lot of flagwaving claims of patriotism and devotion while exploiting every divisive issue they can manufacture at a time when we are supposedly "at war."

And the only fucked up response they can give is "but. . .but Clinton did it. . "..."but. .. look at the Democrats. . ." Well, fuck that. Your party has the power in the White House, controlled the Congress up until the end of last year, and appear to have your own version of "political correctness" and "activist" judges.

We need some adults in public office - and we sure ain't gonna find them in that clown car your party put together touring the country and kissing Pat Robertson's ass.

I'll tell you what it means when Clinton's pardon person (Mark Rich) was represented by Libby.....

It demonstrates how little difference there is b/t parties and don't let people tell you otherwise. The differences are in comparison of perosn to person....not party to party.

It also demonstrates how small DCland really is.
