A Scooter Worse Than a Sandy

We've written about it numerous times. Scooter Libby was convicted of perjury for lying to investigators in a case in which no crime was committed. He was sentenced to jail time.
Sandy Berger stole highly classified terrorism documents from the National Archives before 9/11 commission members had a chance to look at them and knowingly destroyed some of those documents. He lied during the investigation (first saying it was inadvertent). He paid a fine. He got to keep his law license.
At least... that's the agreement he had with the Justice Department. The Bar in Washignton D.C. wasn't willing to let it go however and decided to investigate. Sandy Berger was not interested in answering any questions, so in May, he willingly gave up his law license. That's right, instead of answering questions about what he stole and destroyed, he gave up his law license.
But Scooter works for Cheney. The media is a lot more interested in giving that scandal air time. Sandy worked for Clinton. There's nothing to see here.
