One of these things is slightly different from the other.


On the one hand, you have your over-zealous prosecutor:

Nifong disbarred:Justice is done

The Bar Ethics committee has revoked the law licence of Mike Nifong. He agrees this should be done. So this dem prosecutor has been banned from the practice of law.

The committee has called the three young men,the Duke Lacrosse team,their coach and the Justice System victims. Justice is finally done.

On the other hand, you have a man who was convicted of, among other things, lying to federal prosecutors and obstructing justice:

This is ridiculous. President Bush should commute the sentence or outright pardon Scooter Libby. This whole thing is preposterous. The sentence is more than violent offenders often get.

Many legal scholars question the verdict and it is very possible that the verdivt will be overturned. Pardon Mr Libby , Mr President.

Gosh ... I wonder what it is that makes the good doctor so sympathetic in one case and not the other.

No, no, don't tell me ... I'm keen to guess.
