Totally Lame!
Can you believe this? “Scooter” Libby is charged with lying. That’s like saying “Don’t get caught breathing,” to our Repugnant Party, so natural, so imbued in the political mentality is willful fabrication. If being caught in a lie is criminal, most of America is guilty. Business – especially sales departments – thrive on the fabrication of reality. Surely we have enough evidence to include governments in general and this administration in specific, as a cadre of liars. As if we need further evidence, we only need notice the White House reaction to the indictment.
Our Favorite Shrubbery ™ came to his defense, of course, not that our president had any clue what was going on – it’s not like he actually makes any decisions, anyway. Old George just blinked into the camera like a Tasered Florida schoolchild, reading off cue cards.
While some members of the Lefty Elite are clambering for the Hollywood premiere of “Rove in Chains”, we already have the scapegoat, and the real decision makers will scrape by on this one. Mark my words. Really: to be caught out for lying is really pathetic considering the magnitude of the allegations, the time and taxpayers dollars wasted in this case. If that’s the best Mr. Fitzgerald can do this late in the game our dreams of karmic retribution are over. About the best we can hope for is a ninth-inning rally while the bases are loaded against us.
