Politics As Usual

The good news from the political arena is the indictment of Mr. Libby on five (5) felony charges. No surprise there. But, let’s not forget that it’s only an indictment and not a conviction. Mr. Libby is innocent until proven guilty. Convicting people before a trial is a Republican habit and reflects badly on them. Democrats should remember that and not take the low road, no matter how tempting. What surprised me is the fact that it has taken 5 years for these administration policies to be revealed as (possible) criminal acts.

Watergate, Iran/Contra and now this. The Party of Lincoln has an almost predictable future based on their past. Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Bush I and now Bush II. The last decent man they chose to lead their party was Lincoln.

And last; I know it’s petty…but can you really trust a grown man who calls himself “Scooter”?
