That list *is* unbelievable! It looks like just about everyone on it served jail time! Most, more than a decade! I thought the idea was to abuse presidential power to prevent your disgraceful pals from ever seeing the inside of a cell.

They served jail time because...THEY WERE REAL CRIMINALS! I challenge you to read what an educated Democrat has to say on this subject:

REAL CRIMINALS!!?! OMG YOU'RE SO RIGHT!! Tried, convicted and sentenced in a court of law for a crime. Sorta like Libby.

Face it, if Libby was a Democrat, you'd be calling him a conspirator and a traitor. You'd be howling for him to go to jail for a lot longer than 2.5 years.

And, uh... Christopher Hitchens is a Democrat? You sure about that?

Reading comprehension isn't your bag, is it? Hitchens isn't saying he's a Democrat in that quote. He's claiming that he didn't think Kerry should've been president, and many Democrats thought the same—although they would not have said so publicly.

Care to try again?

"Left" isn't synonymous with "Democrat".

Better luck next time.

(And do keep pasting the URL of that neocon screed. I'm just *certain* it'll become compelling any minute now.)

Sorry, I just thought you'd enjoy reading a fellow socialist's screed.
