Today Scooter Libby was found guilty of perjury and obstruction of justice stemming from a witch hunt. I have already indicated that George Bush should pardon him. Not only would it be appropriate but it would tick off the left. Senator Ted Kennedy has weighed in on the matter:
“President Bush should now pledge that he will not pardon Scooter Libby,” scolded Massachusetts Democratic Sen. Edward Kennedy shortly after Libby was convicted Tuesday of obstructing justice and lying to investigators. NewsMax
Leave it to Ted Kennedy to say that Libby should be in jail when this bloated jackass was never held accountable for killing Mary Jo Kopechne. Teddy laid on the bridge in a fetal position crying about how this would hurt his political career and then showed up for the cameras sporting a neck collar while faking an injury. This all occurred after he swam across the channel and slept off the booze. Ted then had someone he knew take care of his expired driver’s license. Kennedy NEVER spent a day in jail for killing that girl because he pleaded to a lesser charge and received a two month suspended sentence and a year probation. Now he has the audacity to say that Libbey should not get a pardon. Libbey was convicted of lying to the Grand Jury, the same damned thing Clinton did and Teddy supported Clinton.
This blow hard needs to tie one on, go to sleep and stay that way.
