The damages were always the missing part of this story. This is akin to a trial where you've got really good liability and No Fucking Damages. Libby got a light sentence, the equivalent of the type of judgment you or I would get bringing a solid liability case with an illusory loss to be "recovered."
You mean to tell me the Admin somehow concealed the extent of the damages? Bullshit. Plame told everyone how many important networks were lost. The problem was there weren't any.
I'm not Hank. I think this sort of shit was wrong when it was done to Clinton as well. If I could, I'd jail Ken Starr.

Whatever. There are thousands of slimebags sitting in jail right now that deserve a walk more than Scooter Libby does.
I should have known that a man that gave George Tenet a Presidential Medal of Freedom for intelligence work leading up to Iraq would also give a walk to Libby. Accountability for fuck ups--especially for fuck ups having to do with this god awful war--isn't really the calling card of this administration.
