I shouldn't be surprised. In fact, I expected it. I've come to expect most the criminal behavior that comes from the White House. The commuting of Scooter Libby's sentence is just one in a litany of chest-thumping-fuck-you "what are YOU gonna do about it?" stunts.

It's just disgusting. How much more are our elected Democratic officials going to sit around a take? When do WE get fed up and demand a change? These men are not above the law! This is a democracy with checks an balances in place to insure that our liberties and freedoms are not squandered and stolen. At what point are our voices heard? When was the last time you emailed your senator or congressman and demanded that he or she represent your wishes? Make a call or write an email. If you're as pissed as I am every time something like this occurs, make an effort to make your voice heard. Better yet, call or email the White House and voice your opinion!

Try this one for size: Martha Stewart and Paris Hilton served a longer sentence than Scooter Libby. Martha Stewart was found guilty of similar charges as Libby and served 5 months.
