The Bush Administration's reckless contempt for the rule of law has broken new ground.
First Dick Cheney claimed he wasn't part of the executive branch. Now President Bush wiped away a prison sentence for his crony and convicted perjurer Scooter Libby.
Remember, Clinton perjured himself over sex in the oval office, Scooter perjured himself over things that deeply affected America.
For the past six years, Republicans have showed us no argument is too ridiculous and no action too reckless to avoid accountability. Despite Libby's conviction by a jury of his peers for lying to the FBI and obstructing justice, Dick Cheney called Scooter Libby "one of the most capable and talented individuals" he has ever known.
President Bush went even farther –by giving his friend Scooter Libby a 'get out of jail free card' for his crimes.
Congress is holding hearings this week to ask tough questions about the President's role and hold them accountable.
It's time to hold Bush-co accountable.
