Libby guilty of 4 out of 5 charges By MICHAEL J. SNIFFEN and MATT APUZZO, Associated Press Writers 1 minute ago Former White House aide I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby was convicted Tuesday of obstruction, perjury and lying to the FBI an investigation into the leak of a CIA operative's identity. Libby, the former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, is the only person charged in the case, which grew out of an investigation into the 2003 leak of CIA operative Valerie Plame's identity. Plame is married to former Ambassador Joseph Wilson, who emerged in mid-2003 as an outspoken critic of the Bush administration's case for the Iraq war. Fitzgerald says Libby learned about Plame from Cheney and other officials in June 2003 and relayed it to reporters. Libby's defense team argued that Libby recalled his conversations to the best of his ability. Any inaccuracies he made to the FBI or a federal grand jury were the result of a faulty memory, attorneys said.

Longnshort, I just thought of a great idea. How about we sell "Karma Kredits" (tm)? People who generate bad karma no longer have to make up for it by doing good deeds. Now all they have to do is purchase "Karma Kredits" (tm) and all of their spiritual troubles will go away. Our first customer will be Ann Coulter, who generated tons of negative vibes with her "faggot" joke. Why should she spend time in rehab which we all know isn't going to make a difference? Instead, she can purchase "Karma Kredits" (tm) and continue to live, think, and say whatever she wants! The ones who sells the "Karma Kredits" to her are the people who, for instance, may promote gay-friendly communities or hire gay employees over equally-qualified straight candidates. All of this, of course, is meant to create a "Karma Neutral" society using free enterprise. MTLSIE! Tenchusatsu
