Bubba Gets In On the Douchery

Duhbya may not have done anything to purge the taint of his Scooter commutation, but some of the bad vibes have been siphoned off by his predecessor. Bill Clinton joined the chorus slamming Duhbya for his action:

Former President Bill Clinton blasted his successor's decision to spare former White House aide I. Lewis 'Scooter' Libby from prison, telling Iowa radio listeners that Libby's case differed from his own administration's pardon controversy.

'You've got to understand, this is consistent with their philosophy,' Clinton said during an interview on Des Moines news-talk station WHO.

Bush administration officials, he said, 'believe that they should be able to do what they want to do, and that the law is a minor obstacle.'
Regardless of the merits of Clinton's argument, he's got no credibility with which to make it. His pardon record is not exactly stellar, after all.

I agree...Clinton ought not to be throwing stones from his glass house (built by Marc Rich, among others). Especially when the list of atrocities by this President and his administration are legion!

Here, here!

Slickster needs to stick to chasing GILF poon in Iowa and New Hampshire and leave this on to the Dems with credibility on the topic.
