Duty, Honor, Country. Those words are so proudly displayed at U.S. Military Academy at West Point. They were composed by one of this country's greatest generals, Douglas MacArthur. Though Scooter Libby never went to West Point he certainly can relate to them. Libby certainly saw the call to DUTY when he left his very lucrative law practice to serve his country as the chief of staff to the Vice President of the United States. And as the CIA leak case developed,Scooter Libby sought HONOR in holding firm and not implicating anyone else within the executive branch, choosing instead, to fall upon the sword himself. And for all the honor a jury of his "peers" made Scooter Libby a convicted felon. And in this COUNTRY, a convicted political felon can only mean one thing: A BOOK DEAL!
Side note: If the judge has any backbone he will sentence Libby to community service at Walter Reed Army Hospital. Just a thought.
