“You could either go with these stock bars or the glittery kind for a carton of smokes.”

Scooter Libby was sentenced to two and a half years for lying about the outing of a CIA spy. U.S. District Court Judge Reggie Walton said:

People who occupy these types of positions, where they have the welfare and security of nation in their hands, have a special obligation to not do anything that might create a problem. Mr. Libby failed to meet that bar. For whatever reason, he got off course.

Of course, this jail sentence means many inmates will be getting off on Scooter. Probably literally.

I start my morning with jail: rape.
