Libby is the pure definition of what a scapegoat is... It's sad. He DOES need to be punished, but how high up did this go? where are the others? why is no one pushing for a deeper investigation about Cheney!

turning against your own is not something to be take lightly ...

scapegoat: I.LEWIS "SCOOTER" LIBBY aka. someone punished for the errors of others
