Pardon Me Bush

David Limbaugh writes: ...we know beyond any doubt that Richard Armitage, not Libby, was the leaker. Since Libby had committed no "underlying" crime, he had no motive to commit perjury. He had nothing to cover up.

Yes, and it seems that in a case with as much abundant gray and shady areas as this one, that "motive" should have been taken into consideration. But when you're looking for a lamb to sacrifice...

We've recently been reminded of the rash of Clinton pardons...
(really?... reminded by whom?... did Katy Couric highlight this?)
...at the close of their second term in exchange for political contributions and other self-serving reasons. But even before that black mark on America's presidential history, I chronicled in my first book Clinton's abuse of the power to pardon FALN terrorists to boost Hillary's popularity with Puerto Rican voters in her New York Senate race.

This "double standard"... this "African American calling the albino black" (as we say in Greentown)... highlights the unlevel playing field that arises when one political party has the media and popular culture in its back pocket.

For it is not the amazingly obvious hypocrisy of the Democrats that is shocking... But the fact that they parade it around largely unchallenged.


Update:

To "anonymous" who left the comment suggesting that I am a racist:

It is the downfall of the colorblind that they are racially insensitive.

It is the downfall of the colorblind, conservative achiever that he expects the same high ethical standards of all races and nationalities.

It is the downfall of the confident that they wonder why anyone would choose to walk around with a chip on their shoulder... So fragile and easily offended.

It is the downfall of those who recognize that - the differences in the races are limited to the physical - that they are unsympathetic and impatient with racially-based "victim mentality."

Anonymous... That's the closest thing to an apology that you will get from me.
