Deep thinking at NRO:
PRIORITIES [Andy McCarthy]
Regarding Lynne Stewart's 28-month sentence last week for materially supporting terrorism, I wrote that "Valuing [terror] promotion at 28 months in prison — which is about ten percent of what corporate executives get nowadays for financial fraud — is unserious."
Former Enron CEO Jeffrey Skilling was apparently just sentenced to 24 years and four months in prison.
OK, so I was off by a few months ...
Posted at 5:08 PMI know con-SER-va-tives enough that their answer would be to give a Jeffrey Skilling 28 months too. I think we can call that DOUBLE unserious.
