The Devil's Own: Elites are above the law

I have said many times in this space that there is no justice in this country when it comes to the American aristocracy. President Bush’s commutation of vice president's former chief of staff Scooter Libby’s sentence is further evidence that the elites in the United States are above the law, and that we do indeed live in an authoritarian society where the privileged function as a criminal class especially when it pertains to the federal government.

Scooter Libby and the neocon cabal that is in control of the government and political system proved without a doubt that their “war on terrorism” and the proliferation of WMD to terror groups is nothing more than a convenient smokescreen for their criminal activities. Publicly exposing Valerie Plame a CIA operative whose function was to run an undercover network to track the proliferation of WMD to terrorist organizations, and then clearly obstructing the pursuit of justice in the following criminal investigation underscores the moral and intellectual corruption of the neocons.
