Admission
By converting Libbys sentence, king George has silently admitted his involvement in the outing of Valerie Plame as a CIA secret agent. What more proof is needed? Libby covered both Bushes and Cheneys asses by not divulging information he certainly possessed. Not only did he lie but did so under oath and as a lawyer he should have known better. Afterall this administration is based on lies and deceit and in starting the war of aggression in Iraq did not serve the interests of the USA but of another country alltogether. Any doubts about this are squelched by the behaviour of Senator Liebermann, who contrary to the point of view of his former party supports this distastruous gang of neo-cons. The status of the country in the world has been badly damaged and is more so day by day. The coalition of the willing was with few exceptions a group of minor importance, contrary to the first reaction after Sept 11 when all allies enthusiastically supported America. All this bending of laws achives is lowering the possibilty of a republican victory in 2008, as a matter of fact it will help to create a democratic majority. Thankfully this may be a plus to whoever suceeds the shrub to restore some semblance of law and order and most of all sanity in the country.
