Olbermann asks Bush and Cheney to resign

That was the best commentary I heard in years. By Keith Olbermann of course. He makes an excellent point by saying that, at least, Nixon showed an "iota" of patriotism by resigning. The commuting of the sentence of Scooter Libby shows complete lack of respect for the laws of this country.

What amazes me is that the right-wingnuts (including essentially all republican presidential candidates) who call for the deportation or imprisonment of illegal aliens from poor countries like Mexico in order to preserve the "law", dont care that Bush completely ignored the law in the Libby case. Hmm....is that bigotry or what? Would they be happy if Bush had commuted the sentence of a random illegal Mexican instead of Libby? Who committed worst crimes? Libby and the ones he was covering for, or a bunch of poor Mexicans who crossed the border in their desperation to find a job that no American would do, to support their families? Hmm...what a difficult question.
