…your collective breath.
The Dems will be pissed. I imagine the R’s will not care either way. What about the Independents – how do you think a pardon will play out with them?
If Bush does the pardon thing now, I think Independents will react strongly and negatively. But if Bush waits until after the ’08 election, it will probably fade from most minds by the time remembering would be important.
How about an update to (D) and that he is definitely running?
As Lawrence O’Donnell pointed out, the only apparent difference between Dick Cheney and Tony Soprano is that Tony would never have a lieutentant named “Scooter”.
I don’t feel like doing a diary, but here is the link to the story about the death of Gordan’s bill that would have changed the way we vote for pres.

(Love you, big guy.}
Dear Abby,
I’ve never written to you before, but I really need your advice on what could be a crucial decision. I’ve suspected for some time now that my wife has been cheating on me.
The usual signs… phone rings but if I answer, the caller hangs up. My wife has been going out with the girls a lot recently although when I ask their names she always says, “Just some friends from work, you don’t know them.”
I always stay awake to look out for her taxi coming home, but she always walks down the drive. Although I can hear a car driving off, as if she has gotten out of the car round the corner. Why? Maybe she wasn’t in a taxi? I once picked her cell phone up just to see what time it was and she went berserk and screamed that I should never touch her phone again and why was I checking up on her.
Anyway, I have never approached the subject with my wife. I think deep down I just didn’t want to know the truth, but last night she went out again and I decided to really check on her.
I decided I was going to park my Harley next to the garage and then hide behind it so I could get a good view of the whole street when she came home. It was at that moment, crouching behind my bike, that I noticed that the valve covers on my engine seemed to be leaking a little oil.
Is this something I can fix myself or should I take it back to the dealer? Thanks,
You have a sense of humor.
My new friends, I feel bad. It’s been such a long time,
Since I vowed to discuss Lewis Libby in rhyme.
Of indictments, or lying, or Valerie Plame,
But darn it, I just can’t get over his name!
Each time I sit down to my trusty computer,
I’m forced to find good words that might rhyme with “Scooter”.
Now what kind of man (we’re not talking a boy)
Would refer to himself as a little kid’s toy?
Wasn’t Scooter that Barbie gal’s kid sister doll?
That’s not a good name for a grown man at all?
So what is the “I” for, it must be a hooter.
If he’d rather be know by a lame name like Scooter!
Is it Igor or Ichabod, Ike or Ignatius?
Sure none of those names are real buff or vivacious.
But neither is “Scooter” so what’s the big plan?
Any of the above is OK for a man.
“What’s the `I’ for?” I asked as I read the guy’s bio,
But it won’t tell me that, and I want to know why-O.
Could it be that he just thought it wise to prepare,
To say “I. Lewis Libby do solemnly swear”?
Or like that Gannon/Guckert thing that had us agast,
Has he run from his name to escape a loose past?
“Irving Liebowitz, male escort” just doesn’t sound hearty,
Maybe “Scooter” sounds more like a guy who can party.
But if you’re going through the trouble to change your whole name,
Why pick a dumb nickname? Why choose one so lame?
And it isn’t a smart move in your political career,
To author a book which has sex with a deer.
A Rose by another name still would smell sweet!
But this Scooter guy must have some real stinky feet.
`Cause my main man Fitzgerald is telling us that,
Where Libby’s concerned, we all smell a rat.
(No insult intended to rats now you mind.
I know that some rats are quite thoughtful and kind.)
Still haven’t made headway! But still gotta go.
Keith Olberman’s on and I can’t miss the show.
I’ve spoken to friends in DC that knew and worked with Scooter. All of them say that Scooter is a good man who took the fall for others. Most of them said that they personally saw others in government do worse things than Scooter and get away scott free.
My opinion. Scooter is a loyal friend to those he worked for and was willing to take responsibility for those who were not. In my book, loyalty is next to godliness and, although I disagree with what the Administration did to Plame – there are others who should falling just as hard as Scooter.
“I don’t recall” a lot more often.
Reagan said it many times, although he actually didn’t recall much.
I do recall thinking in his second term, though, that he was doing a whole lot of stuttering and pausing. I wondered then if something was wrong with him. When really sharp cookies like Scooter and Clinton play the “I don’t recall” card, it seems a little weak. If you watch tapes from when Bush was Governor, then his first term, and now, there seems to be a definite decline in his communication skills and thinking. I wonder if we will look back in the future and think, “that explains it!”.
that could put many things in perspective 🙂
In terms of lucidity, I would have considered voting for him. (Although I’m sure his policies I would not endorse.
I saw a clip of him campaigning, and I swear, he was articulate, he listened, his grammar and sentence structure was at least indicating an education.
He has slid WAY downhill since then. In fact, my sense is that he is far less articulate that when he entered the office. Listen to some of his stuff recently, he is a complete idiot.
Oh, wait…. I mean REALLY an idiot now….
