We are entitled to be tried by a jury of our peers
But sometimes we are tried by a jury of our fellow citizens who have rocks between their ears and no conception of civic responsibility.
First we had Denis Collins, who did not reveal until the trial was over that he had written a book about the CIA, and who less than 24 hours after the verdict published seven pages of notes at Huffington Post.
And now Ann Somebody tells Chris Matthews she thinks Libby should get a pardon and "it would be more fun to follow" if he gets one now rather than right before Bush leaves office. Watch the video at Hot Air.
Libby won't have to get pardoned. His appeal will be successful thanks to these airheads. Maybe they are Rove moles.
[Alcibiades adds: From the same show, Watch Kate O'Beirne argue with Chris Matthews about whether Scooter should be pardoned right away. She corrects him on the facts of the case as established by the trial, that Valerie Plame suggested Joe Wilson for the trip the day before the Vice President was even briefed on the situation in Niger; typical of Chris, he'll forget the correction by tomorrow and will continue to peddle the set of facts that he prefers.
By the way, I have a somewhat different read on this juror than does Judith. This one seems okay to me, diligent, possessing integrity, whereas Denis Collins is just atrocious. But, hey, he wants his hefty book advance. Who can blame him?
Speaking of which, he's described by his colleagues as: The longtime journalist, 57, who has also written for The Miami Herald and the San Jose Mercury New, was recalled as smart,
hardworking and energetic, although not always "coloring within the lines." ]

"""She corrects him on the facts of the case as established by the trial, that Valerie Plame suggested Joe Wilson for the trip the day before the Vice President was even briefed on the situation in Niger;"""
She must have done this after correcting the CIA, prosecutor, judge and facts established by the trial that Plame's status was as a covert agent by contradicting them all and claiming she wasn't.
It really wasn't worth watching after that.
According to some of the first evidence introduced in the trial, Cheney received the 12 February 2002 briefing on the Niger intel and his request for further investigation in response to this briefing resulted in the meeting about sending Wilson to Niger occurring on 19 February 2002.
It is an undisputed fact that necessity of the Niger trip originated from Cheney requesting this intel be investigated further, yet somehow who went on the trip was suggested before even the trip was ?
Buy that do you ? Brain working on that kind of level is it ?
This woman who clearly has no concept of what was established by the trial, including the central issue for why there was even a leak investigation in the first place, knows something different does she ? Something which contradicts the DIA and CIA accounts of what they did, when and why.
Awesome.
Let's go with her understanding of the matter.
Hell, if this works for you why not find someone willing to say Libby was found not guilty on all counts ? I mean if just having someone say that the court record says something different than what it actually does works for you then why not ?

Quite frankly I've found this Libby business very complicated, and a bit boring. Thankfully, Stephen Colbert explains it to me in this video:

About the valentine's day t-shirt wearing incident: not a jury, a gay man's chorus. LOL
