The Theater of the Corrupt

I have blogged enough about the Libby case on this page. It should suffice to say that, as a practical matter, Bush's "commutation" of Libby's sentence is no different than a full pardon. Not one dime of Libby's $ 250,000 fine will come from his own pockets--though it may be funneled through his personal bank account for the sake of appearances. For sound analysis, see Barry Grey's article on the WSWS.
