Libby was prosecuted because he lied to the FBI, which was the same crime that Martha Stewart went to jail for.

The crime he was not prosecuted for was releasing the name of a undercover CIA agent who specialized in tracking the black market for weapons of mass destruction.

That’s what Libby, Rove, Cheney and, yes, Armitage did. That was treason — and if they had been Democrats that would have been tried and sentenced.

There’s one big problem with this complaint about Rove, Cheney and LIbby: it was Richard Armitage who blew Plame’s cover, not Rove, Cheney, or Libby. (Guess that’s why Libby was prosecuted, and not Armitage, but I digress.) I guess Rove and Cheney are still waiting for the apology, eh?

The sad truth remains that if there wasn’t a market for crap like this and douchebags like Gibson’s who spew it, we wouldn’t even be having this conversation right now. Murdoch is making a lot of money by feeding the talk radio crowd’s hunger for TV and that’s not going to change. Do like I do with Gibson’s radio show; don’t listen. then it goes away … at least for me

I remember reading William L. Shirer’s “The Collapse of The Third Republic,” about how France collapsed before the Nazi onslaught in 1940. Many of the French who turned their backs on their government when it needed them most were like Gibson, pursuing their petty little vendettas at the expense of the “Big Picture,” even when it came to stabbing their own country in the back. And let’s remember that France didn’t free itself, but had to be liberated by the Allies after discarding their freedom like a soggy kleenex and embracing the Fascism of the Vichy Regime.

So what else is new? Gibson is a stooge whose idiocy was so profound that they had to provide a co-host to keep his airhead in the chair.

One must consider the source. I mean really, he is a TV personality on Fox. Not much there in the way of intellect. The saddest part is that he actually thinks what he says or does means something. There are few people as irrelevant as the empty suits and talking heads that populate TV “journalism” and the ones from Fox are especially vapid. Personally, I find them amusing in their stupidity and childlike in their idolatry of all things Bush. Ignore them, they mean nothing to anyone save the trailer park populace whose vacant psyche they are able to mesmerize.

And this is why we are doomed. Because people like this still think that treason done in the name of party loyalty is somehow a virtue.
