I asked if you thought it was APPROPRIATE for anyone to ask such an unrelated question, not whether is was LEGAL. It would be obvious to any sentient being that in this context, the question was completely ridiculous. |

Why is it serious? Here's Scott's theory: Let's say two people happily have sex in the office, and neither of them has a problem with it. Later, one of them is hauled before a grand jury because of insider trading. If you were on that jury, and a lawyer asked the employee "Did you have sex in the office?", what would you think about the lawyer asking that question? |

They, including Bush, Kerry etc. all belong to same clubs, hire same advisors etc. When a Repub or Dem gets voted (or kicked) out office, their staff immediately migrages and is loyal to where ever there is a vacancy regardless of party. Sen/Rep goes to work for a lobbyist he was villifying on Fox or CNN yesterday....... Must be the air or water! Ron in Ca You are aware that the person to be pardoned is guilty of a crime and must be remorsefully? What Libby did is no different than what organized crime figures do - a person keeps thier mouth shut and takes the fall. The crime family takes care of their family, protects them in jail, and give them back their job when they get out. As a former registered republican that still believes "we are a nation of laws and not men", I must say republicans today are not interested in laws, just ideology. Libby was found guilty of his crimes by a jury of his peers. To ask for a pardon is jury nulification but I doubt you agreed with the OJ verdict, which was also jury nulification. Get a grip. Reassess what you are doing, how you are being used by republican people in power. A klinton not only lied, but he lied under oath, perjury, a felony......jail time for klinton, but he wiggled out of it. --- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - Your obsession with Clinton is blinding you to this administration's complete disregard for the constitution. Clinton took the impeachment like a man. No whining, no complaining, no one on the left calling for a pardon. I bet Clinton would not accept a pardon. What do you think is going on with the firing of the federal prosecutors? One of Karl Rove's assistants was put into the New Mexico prosecutor position after Cummings was fired. Another was told he was appointed to a federal prosecutor job to get resume experience so he could be appointed a judge. Before you give me a flip answer consider the "consequences" when a dreaded Democratic president has the same powers. A What's your carbon footprint and are you going to purchase offsets? --- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - See? Avoiding the question... Too bad. When people dialog both learn something. I'm buying a Honda Fit. A You didn't get it did ya, LOL. ACAA gets it. You don't. Clinton lied about a BJ. Who cares? It wasn't a proper subject for investigation and questions about the President's sex life shouldn't have been put to him under oath, anyway. As regards a President's sex life, he has only the First Lady (or the First Husband, after Hillary wins) to answer to. The Bush team appears to be illegally using the identity of CIA operatives to foster political advantage. That's illegal, a subversion of Constitutional processes and is a subject appropriate for investigation and questions about it should be put to people under oath. And, of course, the larger picture is that this Administration is so habitually and brazenly deceitful and so thoroughly and hopelessly incompetent that one of them got convicted for lying when there was no reason to lie. Tell the truth, I don't read more than the first sentence of your postings. Started a couple weeks ago when you yet again repeated yourself. bye. Holy crow. DH's posts are among the most intelligent, rational ones in here. They actually have reasoned content. Cathy |
