Comments on: Cheney abandons old friend Libby http://www.capitolhillblue.com/node/2260 The oldest political news site on the Internet because nobody's life, liberty or property is safe while Congress is in session.

I think everyone knows there is some sort of “deal” arranged to take care of Libby and keep him from serving time in prison. The appearance must be they have nothing to do with it.

Libby is appealing the verdict and regardless of the sentence he receives I’m sure the judge will allow him to remain free during his appeal. That is a fairly common practice in cases of wealthy defendents appealing non-violent convictions. The lawyers are just using the legal system to drag the thing out until everyone forgets about it. Then, when the time comes he will be given a suspended sentence, probation, or a Bush pardon, or whatever it takes to keep him free. Libby will be taken care of – money, job, whatever a good soldier deserves.

Cheney, the slime of slimey rats, is simply showing his true character and jumping ship before he gets pulled under.
Don’t worry, Libby won’t serve a day in the clink. Bush will be told when and how to pardon him and that will be that. Money talks and bullshit walks, and this administration goes marching on like the good christian soldiers that they profess to be–onward unto war. Killing as never before. Slaying friend and foe alike, caring not who falls before their pike as long as they exact their gold and treasure alike.
They make me ill, and I am

Captain Bill
