"It never ceases to amaze me how the most trivial things can be politicized. It is the height of unfairness . . . for this poor guy, who clearly made a mistake," Breuer said.He went on to describe Berger's rough sentence of picking up trash in the DC park system for 100 hours, presumably sans ball and chain.
Timing? Scooter Libby sits in wait of a jury verdict that may send him to prison for dozens of years based on circumstantial evidence, while there were credible witnesses in the Berger case.
To ensure confidence in government he should have at least been stripped of his security clearance for life (the WaPo story was misleading on this), which didn't occur. Conceivably Sandy could be working in a new Clinton administration Cabinet while Scooter sits in jail (for the record, I don't think Berger will ever get confirmed because he won't get nominated--his work is done).
