[Opinions] Re: Lewis Libby +
in reply to a message by Caitlin
Just a random comment...
Scooter Libby's name is a childhood nickname and he hasn't always used it. IMO it is used politically, to make him seem a more benign character. It is definitely not an example of tacky naming.
From Wikipedia:
Libby was born to an affluent Jewish family in New Haven, Connecticut; his late father, Irving (Irve) Lewis Libby, was an investment banker.
The man is a US 'elite,' and isn't comparable to A Precious Diamond or to Sapphyre Skye.
edited to put elite in quotes so you know I don't look up to the man in any way whatsoever ... my point being just that he's from a fam that lives in the socioeconomic stratosphere
