You got it, Mcdirector.
In spite of a mountain of evidence to the contrary, there are still going to be people who, for whatever reason, can't stand the fact that the politicians they've backed themselves into a major corner to support, are corrupt. That includes Cheney, Bush, and their advisors. Libbey was just a scapegoat, and this is only the tip of the iceberg. The recent revelations about the way eight federal prosecutors were fired is going to open doors to mind-boggling corruption in the justice department. I have an idea that what's been covered up by all of that will lead to the resignation, possibly forced, of Alberto Gonzales. The Bush administration is going to have a hard time with that, in fact, they already are. It's quite sad, really. And I certainly hope the voters remember that in a year and a half.
Where there's smoke, there's fire. Isn't that what all these "conservatives" were screeching when they were clamoring for investigations during the Clinton administration?
Don't let this rot convince you otherwise. Libbey is guilty, and probably of a whole lot more than for what he was tried.
