Bush Is Such A Scumbag
President George W. Bush on Monday commuted the 30-month prison sentence handed to Lewis “Scooter” Libby, former chief of staff to vice president Dick Cheney, for lying and obstructing justice.
Well, I hope the next time I out a CIA agent, endanger her life, and the lives of every single agent (foreign & domestic) that ever worked with her, I don’t have to go jail for it either. Because, clearly, it’s just no big deal. If you’re buddy buddy with Bush, you can commit all sorts of crimes, and often you’ll get the Medal of Freedom. Whoo hoo. Damn, I don’t think there’s a bigger bunch of criminals anywhere than in the White House.
If you voted for him once, it was poor judgment. If you voted for him twice, you need to have your head examined. Look around you, the world is disgusted by us. In one short presidency, we went from the leaders of the world to the clowns.

I was watching a really good documentary the other day, Semper Fi, the story of Jeff Key a Southern gay man who joined the marines at 34 because he truly felt a love of country that was strong enough to put him back in the closet. He went through a process where he began to see the lies they were being told, and the way the military was behaving in Iraq that went against everything he felt that being a Marine meant.
He said at one point that he truly never realized that other countries didn’t love and adore America until 9/11.
So many people still don’t realize just how many lies we’ve been told because they get their truth from the White House and Fox News. It makes me despair at the level of ignorance in our country.

I promise you, I never voted for him. Nor have I voted for Hillary Clinton. I want a senator who is From My State to represent me.

Richard Armitage was the person who outed the CIA agent. He confessed. It was not Scooter Libby

They’re all complicit, and I’m sure Cheney or Rove is who actually did the deed, but Libby was convicted of obstructing justice and until we send the other scumbags to prison, he’s the only one who was sentenced to prison...and I want SOMEONE to pay for ruining that woman’s career and endangering the lives of countless agents worldwide. Damn, that’s one of my best run-ons ever. Anyway, he was convicted and I’m not happy with him getting off with a fine, because someone else is going to pay that fine for him, because he’s protecting others. Others with lots and lots of money and power. Frankly, I want them all sharing a cell for life. They’ve ruined our country.
