Lewis "Scooter' Libby Jr. was indicted today on charges that have nothing to do with the investigation of the CIA leak of a non-covert agent.

This Columbia University law school graduate was indicted on charges of obstruction of justice, making false statements and perjury.  Not, I want to add again, for leaking the identity of a NON-COVERT CIA AGENT.

An attorney would be the first person to know what perjury was.  He knows what false statements are.  He is a respected attorney who has never been in trouble, and now all of the sudden he is Captain Liar??

The Democrats are going to try and prove that Libby was part of a greater conspiracy that included the President to cover up their lack of evidence regarding the reasons for going into Iraq.  They hope Bush will be the next Nixon, that they can tear him apart one advisor at a time.

This is also part of the 2005-2006 Democrat Play Book under the heading, "How to Make Republicans Look Bad, Regardless of the Truth".

If you are buying this load of indictment, I have some property I would like to sell you ...
