So I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby was finally convicted after four years investigations and other BS. We all believe that Libby was the fall guy and that he covered for Cheney at least and maybe even president Bush in the CIA leak scandal.
Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald says that his investigation is now over so we have many questions left unanswered, still. No one has ever been charged with leaking Plame's name and it appears that no one is ever going to be.
Now that Libby is tagged for lying and obstructing an investigation, what kind of sentence will the hood get? He's looking at 25 years in the slammer on the 5th of June, which is when he will be sentenced. But, as you know, the federal guidelines say that he will not receive anywhere near that kind of time. Libby's lawyers are appealing the verdict and they are asking that Libby remain free while the appeals take their course.
This mean that it is possible that Libby may never see a single day behind bars if the appeals can be dragged out long enough.
I tend to believe that Libby will stay out of jail while the appeals process drags on and then, if the sentence is upheld he will be pardoned by the Bush Crime Family for his loyalty to the cause.
The Democrats will just have to seek dirt on Cheney and Bush from elsewhere, which should be no problem.
It was asked of Bush to not pardon Libby by Harry Reid yesterday. Sometimes, this man needs to keep his mouth shut so that he doesn't look so stupid. I'll bet that Bush and the gang rolled on the floor laughing after Reid made that comment. Libby's silence was a guarantee pardon no matter what the sentence.
Right now, I need some caffeine. the mind isn't working right this morning. The eye's are open but there is nobody home!
