Scooter's extenuating circumstances(kids)means he'll walk.

[Hubert Flottz]

That's right...Scooter has little tiny kids...The GOPers on TV say not to be hard on Scooter, because he's a family man who loves his kids. They think it would be VERY cruel, to split up that happy family, over this trivial matter of outing Valerie Plame. Wouldn't community service for a week or two, be enough punishment for this man with family values, they ask?

How many Kids have dads and moms that won't ever be coming back from Iraq? Parents who loved their little kids just as much as Scooter cares for his kids. Parents who's only crime was serving their country in the armed forces, in order to feed those kids. Parents who died over Scooter and his co-conspirator's Lies. It doesn't look like Scooter cared about those people who died for his lies, at all. The only thing that worried Scooter about the whole Iraqi war, was his getting caught "Selling" it. The only kids who REALLY matter to the GOP, is the Haves and the Have More's kids.

Those people who uphold the neocons, the haves and the have mores are about as low down as human beings can get, but we owe them compassion? I say the type of compassion they extend to the poor is the very kind they deserve. ZERO Compassion in other words.
