And I am sure that Fitz and team are happy that Libby will never practice law.
A Washington, D.C., radio station reports that I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby Jr., the former chief of staff to Vice President Dick Cheney, has been disbarred.
A three-judge panel on the D.C. Court of Appeals stripped Libby of his ability to practice law after he was found guilty last year of obstructing the investigation in the CIA leak investigation, WTOP radio reported.
"When a member of the Bar is convicted of an offense involving moral turpitude, disbarment is mandatory," the three judges wrote in their order. "This court has held that obstruction of justice and perjury are crimes of moral turpitude. Since respondent was convicted of each of these offenses, as the Board concluded, disbarment is mandatory under D.C. Code.

LOL! The little soldier got hosed!
Ride like the wind Scooter on his little scooter.
Cheney will have to step yet again to pardon Libby and over rule the US Bar Association. Look Bush stepped in to over rule Judge Walton's order now Bush has to step in and do the same with these Judges decision. Now we'll see what happens. Remember Scooter was spared from going to jail but he still is convicted felon.
Jackie--Your little angel put some fake art dealers/scammers in the hot seat. I only caught part of the news story, though.
Jim "Milkman" Oberweis, the Republican who wants Hastert's seat inherited Oberweis Dairy and ice cream stores from his dad and grandpa. Oh, and that means he's literally full of bull shit.
They will deliver milk, but at $3.09 for 1/2 gallon, only the yuppies can afford it.
