Power corrupts

"Unlimited power is apt to corrupt the minds of those who possess it"
-William Pitt the Younger

Is this the type of presidency that we want? Is this the person we want as currently the most powerful person in the world? Is this the person we want as our leader, a person who has repeatedly shown complete an blatant disregard to the laws of this nation? Well currently we have this person in the white house. Bush has now disregarded a ruling from the court of appeals that says Scooter Libby should serve his prison sentence and has commuted his sentence. Anyone who thinks that this is just a partisan attempt to attack the white house is wrong. This is a republican prosecutor and a republican court that sentenced Scooter Libby to his 30 months of prison for obstruction of justice. Because of this Bush should also be charged with obstruction of justice and contempt of congress. Although this isn't illegal this is unethical and immoral because it gives Libby the security that he wouldn't need to reveal any information because Bush would pardon him. To say that your friends can't be touched by the law, this is the pinnacle of corruption, this coming from the pinnacle of power.
