Libby Verdict A Sham

According to a Senate Intelligence Committee Investigation, Joe Wilson, a staunch Democrat and husband of Valerie Plame made accusations and many false claims. Eventually, these false claims led to the conviction of a man that had nothing to do with those claims.

Wilson had gone to Niger, Africa on a partisan mission, attempting to prove that deception, was, what led to the Iraq War.

A ridiculous trial resulting in a guilty verdict for Scooter Libby relating to a totally different matter, was the end result.

The whole trial had nothing to do with the original charge-the outing of Valerie Plame as a CIA agent. The person who revealed her name, which was a non-leak, became known to the prosecutor before the Libby trial began. That person was Deputy Secretary of State, Richard Armitage.

The prosecutor, Patrick Fitzgerald never should have proceeded with this trial, upon learning that Armitage had outed Valerie Plame, as a CIA agent. No crime was committed by that outing.

This was Washington politics as low and disgusting as it gets.
