Scooter Libby's sentence - you gotta love it. I can't believe all the whining from the right about it. As Beretta said, "if you can't do the time, don't do the crime". So, if you don't want to go to jail, Scoots, don't lie.

How long 'til the pardon? Any bets? Does Bush keep Scooter out of the pokey or does he wait 'til he's on his way out of office and let Libby do some token time? He's such a coward, I'm betting the latter. Then again, his respect for the law is nil, so maybe the former.

A tenner says Dubya will pardon his ass by the end of the week. The freakazoids are already demanding it.

Very funny piece on BBC News website, comparing his plight with that of Paris Hilton.

LK, man, what's up in the OC? I think this editorial is a public-service announcement for sunblock. Someone on the Register's editorial board has been wandering around in your hot weather for too long.

Yeah, either that or they're suffering from silicone poisoning brought on when their boob job sprang a leak...

I can't claim the people here - lotsa entitled, dickhead Repup types, it's just that it's so pretty, at least the coastal part is, and the weather's so great. The inland part's for the birds - it was reputedly Anaheim that drove Philip K. Dick so batshit crazy - that and, admittedly, a lot of drugs...Btw, when you travel here, you have to fly into "John Wayne Airport", which I think says it all.

Catherine, I wouldn't take that bet. Craven? cowardly? Bush has got 'em all - I wouldn't put anything past him...

George H.W. Bush pardoned Iran Contra guilty Cap Weinberger and others a month before leaving office, least we forget. I'm betting that the son trumps the dad again and pardons Scooter as soon as possible. He loves sticking it to his detractors.
