July 2
Hi...welcome to Politalk. I hope to raise some questions and thoughts in this space...and I'd like to get your feedback and hear what you think.
I was going to start by bringing up a few topics and waiting for your response, but as I write this, the big political news of the day is President Bush commuting the sentence of Scooter Libby.
What are your thoughts? Did the President do the right thing, or did he in effect say the Vice-President's former chief of staff is beyond the law? Yes, I know, he must still pay the $250,000 fine, but he won't have to serve the 30 months he was sentenced to serve. So let me know...we can talk about lots of other topics, like fundraising. Good news for Obama, bad news for McCain.

In my opinion Libby's sentence shouldn't have been commuted. I believe that Pres. Clinton was impeached for lying to a grand jury regarding a sexual relationship with an intern. His sentence being commuted, in my opinion, is like saying it's okay to jeopardize someone's life, in in essence national security, but no okay to lie about your personal life.
