Criminal Justice

The Buffalo News, June 7, 2007, reports in part:

"Libby, former chief of staff to Vice President Cheney, was sentenced to 30 months in prison and fined $250,000 for lying to investigators about his role in leaking the identity of an undercover CIA officer, Valerie E. Plame."

30 months. Oh, and he's free on appeal.

It is no wonder why it is called the “criminal justice system”. Where is the justice for Valerie? Maybe she doesn't get any because she's not a criminal.

...And all along the real criminals behind this escape all punishment, or even scrutiny.The stench goes all the way to the top.

It's funny what Ian picks up. The other day, I turned on the television and Bush was on. He said, "Mommy! Turn the channel! I don't want to watch that criminal!" What is funny about it is that I'm not the only one he's listening to.
