"One big question is what role, if any, Mr. Cheney played. Mr. Libby and Mr. Cheney are extremely close — they often rode to work together before Mr. Libby’s indictment forced him to resign as Mr. Cheney’s chief of staff in October 2005 — and aides said the vice president viewed Mr. Libby’s conviction as a tragedy."
This really makes me sick. This is the man, probably most responsible for the daily carnage in Iraq of both our soldiers, and Iraqi civilians. To me, this man is just evil. He sleeps at night and isn't kept up by images of dead soldiers, maimed 21 year olds, and burned children. But his boy gets popped for doing his dirty work, and that's "a tragedy". This guy doesn't have the heart to know what a tragedy is. But, he's survived FIVE heart attacks, and that, is as near proof as you are ever going to see that there's no God.
"Indeed, to administration critics, the commutation was a subversion of justice, an act of hypocrisy by a president who once vowed that anyone in his administration who broke the law would “be taken care of.”
This, I disagree with. I don't think this is necessarily "hypocrisy". After all, the promise that anyone in his admistration who breaks the law is "going to be taken care of" can be taken two ways. I think his subsequent actions show how the words were originally meant. They were meant in the Mafia manner. If you don't squeal, don't worry, we're gonna take care of you when you get popped.
And bush, along with President Cheney, have certainly been true to that promise. So, that's a bad rap they are getting there.
