Libby's Pardon

Talk of Bush granting Libby a pardon is beginning to swirl even before Libby begins his appeals process. Cheney's office issued this statement...

"The defense has indicated it plans to appeal the conviction in the case...Speaking as friends, we hope that our system will return a final result consistent with what we know of this fine man."

The judicial system may not return that result, but the bastard will get off with a pardon from Bush. What ever happened to the administration's tough rhetoric when the leak was first exposed? The "we'll find out who did this and punish 'em up something fierce" crap. Bush will pardon him because Bush has nothing left except the few friends like Libby who are willing to jump in front of a 747, get back up, and say "thank you sir may I have another". This administration is shit and it's severly altered my party for the worse.
