The American Spectator

SCOOTER AMAZES br> Re: Ben Stein’s Bush Amazes : /p>

What all the Compassionate Christian Conservatives seem to actually enjoy overlooking is the fact that Libby raised his hand, swore to God Almighty to tell the truth and then flat out lied to protect his political cronies….those same aforementioned Compassionate Christian Conservatives. It doesn’t matter who knew what first or last — he just plain lied — and not about a cheap, cheesy extra-marital affair but rather about the foundation of America — our Constitution. It seems that every Democrat has a sexual itch and every Republican has a totalitarian itch. Our nation can easily overcome a philanderer — but not a despot.

Some of us have spent our lives defending America and the Constitution “from all enemies, foreign and domestic…” and we are offended in the highest at the actions of the Bush Regime, et al. — especially at their pronouncements of “moral superiority” over us lesser folks.

Here’s a question, if properly answered, might help those afflicted with myopia from Madame Mata Valerie’s two-year dance upon the stage of the Washington press corps:

Why didn’t Robert Novak, once the prosecutor had set his attention and his prosecutorial power on Scooter Libby, hold a press conference and simple state for the world to hear “Scooter Libby was not the leaker”?

This simple little press conference would have helped to put Scooter Libby’s charges in their proper context plus helped an embattled White House enormously. But Novak did not do this. Why? History, historians and housewives in Michigan will not be kind to Mr. Novak.

In Monday’s Reader Mail a writer proclaimed: “No one cares what Ben Stein thinks.” Well, maybe. But I have a couple of observations for the “said” aggrieved: (a) “Yes, we do.” And (b) “You’re an idiot.”
