Libby must report to Jail- Court rules. UPDATE below

Federal Appeals Court rules Scooter Libby must go to jail. His name has been officially changed to fit the new digs he will soon occupy: federal inmate No. 28301-016. Scooby Doo, they got Scooter too!

I can't think of a better story to post on this, my 500th posting!

UPDATE: The euphoria was very short lived as President Bush has granted immunity to Scooter Libby so he doesn't have to spend even one day in prison. I'll bet President Bush, and especially VP Cheney, are happy they did this, as they hope some day if they are ever brought up on War Crimes at the World Court, that some of their influential Republican base members will try to get them a pardon there, as a quid pro quo for helping Libby.

Libby Pardon: Fly Disgraced Red White and Blue at Half Mast this 4th

Dick Cheney and George Bush are a disgrace to our country. They are skillful liars as are all psychopaths. In fact lack of concern for community or democratic values as in putting oneself above the law combined with habitual lying defines psychopathy. It defines Cheney and Bush.

I personally don’t think Scooter is a psychopath on the order of Cheney and Bush. I believe he lived in an environment where lying and duplicity were practiced daily on the most egregious levels. Living in this environment day in and day out, he had little practical knowledge or experience that there could or might be even one possible iota of repercussion for bold faced lying. Lacking the snakelike skills of a Cheney or Bush he blew it.

That Scooter, the person, should not have to spend years in prison strikes a sympathetic chord with me.

That Scooter, the representative of an administration that adheres to no moral system in the pursuit of power and economic gain, should avoid justice makes me vomit.

I think we should fly all American flags at half staff this 4th and until these mendacious psychopaths are escorted out of the White House, one way or the other.

Better yet perhaps, would be to visit or demonstrate in D.C. and simply leave flags at the White House gates and the Supreme Court building. This, turning in of the flags, will represent that the Red, White and Blue is used only for propaganda by Bush, Cheney and the neocon party and it no longer represents American values.

It has been disgraced
