The Clintons are the scum of our political society and the sad part is that many of the liberals love them and would love to see them in power again.  I knew when President Bush commuted the sentence of Scooter Libby that the Democrats and media would be all over him for it.  I knew we would see the standard double standard that we always see from the left, why should this be any different?  What did catch me slightly off guard was the arrogance from the Clinton’s regarding Bush’s decision.  You see a strong case could be made for commuting and/or offering a full pardon to Scooter Libby.

• Before Fitzgerald ever questioned Libby he already knew that Richard Armitage was the one who gave up her information to the press.  
• She (Plame) was not a covert CIA agent at the time so how was she “outed”?
• If she was not covert and Libby did not tell the press, and if Fitzgerald already knew who did leak it why put Libby on trial?  And is it possible that Libby truly forgot what was said to whom on what exact date?  Could it not be an innocent mistake and not a cover up of a crime that did not happen?

These are valid questions where one could argue that 30 months in prison is too much time to serve.  So how is it that the arrogant Clinton trash would have the audacity to question Bush’s decision to commute the sentence for Libby when he is guilty of far worse?

“Yeah, but I think the facts were different,” Mr. Clinton said. “I think there are guidelines for what happens when somebody is convicted. You’ve got to understand, this is consistent with their philosophy; they believe that they should be able to do what they want to do, and that the law is a minor obstacle.”

Are you kidding me?  If I am not mistaken (and I am not) Mr. Clinton pardoned his own half brother on his last day in office!  His half brother!!  So who is it that has the philosophy that they can do whatever they want and that the “law is a minor obstacle”?  Clinton issued 140 pardons his last day in office alone!  That is 27 more that George W. Bush has granted in his whole entire term in office!  Now he and his wife want to criticize Bush for commuting Libby’s sentence as if they have any moral grounds to do so?  Clinton was pardoning his own family and that is ok but Bush better not pardon anyone for covering up a non-crime!  Clinton also pardoned Marc Rich thanks to his former wife’s large campaign contributions to Clinton and his library.  The list goes on to include a few drug dealers, several involved in fraud, tax evasion, possession of stolen goods and on and on.  Take a look for yourself, Clinton pardoned all kinds of criminals including terrorists and yet he still has the audacity to question President Bush?

Now I am willing to debate the case of Libby and the questions of the Federal Sentencing guidelines as I agree that Bush’s decision brings up some valid questions about others in similar situations.  If this is too harsh of a sentence for Scooter then should not the same hold true for all Americans?  Here are some examples of that.

What I cannot deal with is the hypocrisy from the Clintons and the left that somehow justifies his actions but condemns those of President Bush.  But then whoever claimed that the left held themselves to the same standards?  If they did then Clinton would need a pardon himself for his lies under oath in the Jones case where he was was held in contempt!  I know, the liberals always say that does not count because it was about sex and everyone lies about sex.  So who gets to make the decisions about what it is ok to lie about?  If it is ok to lie about sex in a sexual harassment case is it ok to lie about a non crime in a non crime case?  Who gets to decide?  Does this mean that Clarence Thomas could have lied if he needed to (although he was not the one caught in lies, it was his accuser Anita Hill that was caught lying)?  Liberals will try to justify anything as we have seen evidence of all too many times.

I am just getting tired of these liberals and their double standards.  I am especially tired of the Clintons, and they should be the last ones to ever question any pardon from any president!

Got this in an email and thought it was funny enough to share.

I just checked the web sites of all of the major news networks and found something predictable.  All of the sites (ABC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, FOX) have a story or headline about the Ann Coulter Slur regarding John Edwards.  However, only FOX has a headline about Bill Maher's despicable remarks about Cheney.  Why is that?  Is it worse to use a gay slur like "Faggot" than it is to wish that someone were killed? 

Well, it is not, they are both bad but it once again illustrates the inept biased media not doing its job.

I guess when you have nothing worth hearing it is tough to sell ads, which means it is tough to make money.

Air America Radio, a liberal talk and news radio network, has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, a network official told the AP.

The network had denied rumors just a month ago that it would file for bankruptcy, but on Friday Air America said negotiations with a creditor from the company's early days had broken down.

The network will stay on the air while it resolves issues with its creditors, spokeswoman Jaime Horn told the Associated Press. A formal announcement was expected to be made later Friday.

Remember, they even had some shady loans that the media could not bring themselves to really report on.

A co-founder of Air America Radio reportedly loaned the network and himself more than $800,000 from a non-profit charity in New York while serving as its development director.

Evan Cohen made the highly questionable loans while a director of the Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club, which serves 20,000 children, elderly residents, and people with disabilities. Some loans were directed to Air America as the fledgling liberal talk radio network was launched in March 2004; others went personally to Cohen, who claimed "he needed the money to pay for chemotherapy for himself and other medical expenses for his ill father," according to the New York Sun.

Can you imigine the stories and the attention this would get if it were a conservitive venture?

Ok, one thing that bugs me is when someone or some company like YouTube, which should have nothing to do with politics tries to covertly force its political agenda on its users.

The popular video-sharing YouTube site, which is being purchased by Google for $1.65 billion, limited access to a political ad that mocks the Clinton administration's policy on North Korea, but contains no profanity, nudity or other factors generally thought objectionable.
 
The company announced a "flagging" policy change just this week, about the time that a controversial spoof by Republican filmmaker David Zucker depicting former Secretary of State Madeline Albright as a cheerleader for Islamic terrorists started appearing with a warning page in front, requiring verification that a viewer is 18 before the video will appear.

 
Now that Google is buying YouTube I am sure that we can expect more of the same, since google has always been run by Bush Haters.

Google has come under its own criticism for holding an anti-conservative or anti-Republican agenda. It has been criticized in the past, according to a WND report for hosting "Paiderastia: The Boy Love Revival" site on its weblog.

It has in the past censored various Christian-themed ads, but allowed porn ads. In the past it has produced "President Bush" when searchers hunt for "miserable failure."

And a Google search for "liar" produced as the top choice a site for a biography for British Prime Minister Tony Blair, a close ally with President Bush in the war on terror.

Just another example of the “left” trying to censor anyone who does not share their opinion.  Thank God for the New Media, this makes it harder for anyone to get by with these things anymore.  In the end it will only shed light on the hypocrisy of those who try to sneak their agenda.

So, like I said, I hope Soapbox overtakes YouTube!  That is until Microsoft decides to start putting its political agenda on Soapbox.  Lets all hope that does not happen.

Found this on the Lone Star Times, pretty funny and true.
