Sandy Burglar was just as guilty and just as arrogant.
I don't care about Libby, if he lied he can go to prison, but Sandy got
away with murder.
I used to do archival work and NO ONE walks out of an archive
with documents in their socks who does not have larceny in their
hearts. His excuses were as laughable as Clintons... Maybe moreso.

Thad,
I'm not saying that Libby didn't do anything criminal. AFAIK, maybe he
should have gotten 5 years. Lying to a grand jury is a big deal and those
who do it should be nailed. I don't think our court system has gone
completely off the deep end on that particular case, but what Berger did was
so criminal that it defies all logic that the guy shouldn't have been given
20 years in Leavenworth and it really makes me wonder WTF is going on when
he skates with a disbarment, a $250k fine and probation. Both of those are
pretty stiff penalties for someone of lesser means, but the punishment he
received would not dissuade another rich shill like Berger for taking a
bullet for his boss......especially if/when the boss is Billary (now in the
guise of "Hilbilly")
You still diggin that Liquidmix thang? We need to "talk some DAW" soon. I'm
specing out a new workhorse that has enough bandwidth (I think) to push 4 x
UAD-1's, 3 x RME HDSP's and a Duende or Liquidmix (or maybe both). I'm going
to need a PCIe FW card for this. what are you using for your LM?

You don't sentence people for being arrogant. If we did, you, me and every
judge and attorney would be behind bars. The prosecutor knew where the leak
came from before ever questioning Libby. They were on a political witch
hunt. There was no crime. They trapped him in what is perceived to be a
crime of perjury. It's questionable, and the punishment is extreme.

James, you're wrong about that. A belief that judges cannot and do not
willfully err is at least as innacurate as you are correct that arrogance
exists behind the bench... the same arrogance you believe has no affect on a
sentencing handed out by one arrogant judge.
And I am talking about first world democracies as are you. Any attorney
will tell you that a judge will refute the sky being blue if he wants to.
Judges can and do rescind jury convicted criminals and in like manner but
thay can't sentence someone found not guilty. The latter being the case, if
a judge wants to he may control the courtroom in such a way as to shape
argument in such a way as to cause a conviction that would not otherwise
occur were he truly neutral on guilt or innocense.
I'll give you an example of how both attorneys and judges can and do
manipulate the course of a criminal preceding before it even begins. This
is not meant to offend anyone here but I have had atty's tell me (and judges
confirm their knowledge of the practice) that in a case where they know
their client is guilty, the best thing a defense atty can hope for is a
naturally red-headed female juror. The tested theory being that when a
unanimous jury vote is required for murder (as an example) conviction, a
red-headed female will, 9 of 10 times, go against the rest of the jury and
defeat the possibility of a unanimous decision. Judges know this and
participate in the inclusion or exclusion of such jurors. One example of
many, many.

I totally agree with you. Let me restate my comment. Your not supposed to
sentence people for being arrogant. Is that Better?: )
Our justice system is a total joke. I know this first hand!

It depends on what you think of Scooter. I think that a combination of Rove/Cheney/Rice
intentionally outed two active CIA case workers. I think Scooter helped them,
and was the best fall guy they had. In doing so they also outed at least
one CIA front company used for overseas cover, probably also used by other
case workers. I think up to that point we're swimming in waters of great
likelihood. If that is all more or less true, any foreign intelligence agency
with a double digit average IQ and a working cell phone could find out a
number of people in their country working for the CIA. What do you think
happened to those people? What happened to the credibility of the next generation
of case officers to tell a potential spy for the US, 'We don't play politics,
we'll get you out if my cover is blown, you have the promise of the US government
that there is no higher priority for our intelligence gathering.'
Not using the LM much yet. We're still mostly in the tracking stages. I'm
going to start editing drums this weekend and maybe I'll play a little with
it then. However, the bits and pieces I've used it on so far I gotta say
I'm impressed.

First he wasn't the one that leaked it. You think a lot of things, and your
jumping to a lot of conclusions. If the press is knowingly doing harm, where
is the responsibility of the press in all of this? By the way, she was a
desk clerk at the time, not a field agent.

Case officer, James, not agent. Agents are the foreigners they recruit, they
CIA people doing the recruiting are case officers. And yes, she was at a
desk at the time it happened, everyone gets pulled back to work at Langley
sometimes and they almost always despise it. But it wouldn't take much ingenuity
knowing she had been a case officer working for a particular front company
to figure out other people involved.
And if you want to hang Robert Novak by the nuts be my guest. I'm sure you'd
be howling for blood if Al Gore's office had outed a CIA officer actively
working in counter terrorism to Anderson Cooper.
