Having never expressed remorse for his crime, Scooter Libby instead enlisted his neoconservative friends to win him reduced prison time.
  • Paternalistic Absolutist turn to Relativism

    Amazing how the line of Conservative absolutists turn to the notions of leniency, clemency, compassion, forgivennes and pardon when one of their own is found guilty. The harsh sentence people who are the gatekeepers want to put everyone behind the gates they do not like and they want to exempt their kind from the "rule of law" absolutism and paternalism.

    Why is even pardon being discussed? Why? Cause a priveleged white man should never be punished for their missdeeds? Cause privleged right wing men are allowed to have us consider their past (considering his past was not noble)?

    Such hypocritical scoundrels, they have no shame, no shame whatsoever.
