If Libby is convicted after a competent criminal trial where he is allowed to present a defense then I would accept the accusations as proven. Until that time the statements in the indictment are merely accusations not facts. A plea bargain would not be considered an acceptable standard.

The Prosecutor has all the money and time in the world. He/She can simply drag everything out hoping to exhaust the ability of the Defense to defend themselves and force them to cop a plea.

Bush will pardon Libby. Probably after the elections.
