Democrats across the country were outraged after Vice President Dick Cheney’s former Chief of Staff, Lewis “Scooter” Libby, was convicted for committing whatever crime Special Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald had charged him of committing, Underneath Politics has learned.

“It makes me sick,” said long time Democratic voter Betty Granath. “To think he did what it is that he did is beyond comprehension. How could he betray the trust of the American people like that? I haven’t been this outraged since that Florida lady (Katherine Harris) did whatever it is that she did to help George W. Bush illegally win the 2000 election.”

Kenneth Johns from Santa Monica, California, echoed the sentiments of Ms. Granath. “Maybe Karl Rove put Mr. Libby up to the hideous thing that he did wrong during the time when so many scandalous things were being done by the Republicans in power. It’s disgraceful!”

Ms. Granath thinks Bush should not impeach Mr. Libby under any circumstances. “I hope President Bush makes it clear to the American people that no matter who you are, if you do what Scooter Libby did, you will go to jail for however long you should go to jail for… if you did something like he did.”

Mr. Johns wonders how Scooter Libby will inform his children of what Daddy did. “I’ve never heard of him before today and don’t know if he has kids, but if he does, I’m sure sitting them down and saying, ‘Daddy has done a horrible thing to the American people, something that Daddy will try and explain when you’re an adult, and he is going away to pay his debt to society,” will be a very difficult thing.

Mr. Johns also thinks Libby’s fellow inmates will not take so kindly to his offenses. “You don’t want to know what they do to guys that have done what it is that Mr. Libby did,” he said. “Once those prisoners read court documents and decipher his crime, they will do unspeakable harm to his person.”

Though outraged over his offense, Ms. Granath hopes no physical harm comes to Scooter Libby. “Maybe they could separate him from the rest of the prison population,” she said. “I don’t know how much damage inmates in a white collar prison could do, but something tells me it would only aggravate his mild case of arthritis. This is America after all, not an American prison being run in Iraq.”
