Forget Paris...

Hilton, Schmilton, speaking of let-them-eat-cakers who got a get out of jail (mostly) free card, Bush just let that momser Libby off the hook.

Yes, I know, we're, what: surprised by this? But really, you know, talk about thwarted schadenfreude. Can we at least all start cracking terrible jokes about his sexuality? Here, I'll start: something or other uh-oh Scooter scooted, better hide the the deer and the bears. Something. eh, I can't be bothered.

Goddam. I wonder how many of the people who were gloating over the celebutante who got hers (poor lambkins, now she's comforting herself with a multimillion dollar summer house in Hawaii, apparently) even know who the hell Libby is? Or why this matters?

Oh well. I love right now, I really do. "Why, no, the peasants didn't get any more bread, and the Revolution is a no-go. But check it: we totally made Marie cry. Schweet."

"Bush left intact a $250,000 fine and two years probation for Libby, and Bush said his action still "leaves in place a harsh punishment for Mr. Libby.""

You know everything's relative, and I somehow doubt that a fine like that is harsh in the situation. Besides, what with Libby's memory, he'll promptly forget any suffering paying it out might cause.

So, when does the Revolution start again? *sigh*

Seriously, I want to be surprised by this, but. . .the rule of law has no meaning to these people, does it?

Of course, if they had taken the Clinton approach it would have been a non-issue (just had V. Plame's husband killed instead of trying to discredit him).

Yes, right. And then of course if Bush had done something really -serious-, like fucking an intern, we might have had him impeached by now. --Look, don't you have an aluminum millenary to run or something? Jesus.
