I'm not a big fan of pardons- it negates what should be a fair justice system. And, it implies that the pardon receiver is guity while the pardon issuer is corrupt.

However, in this case, there is so much political maneuvering and prosecutorial overreach that when topped off by an activist jury- there is no way any fair people can say that justice has been served.

I would hope that Bush would pardon Libby and just take the political fallout. For goodness sake, Bush is already described as the most evil man in America by the mainstream press, what more hit can his reputation take?

I have sympathy for Libby, but Clinton did this country a terrible wrong by justifying perjury. Think how despicable to tell our young people perjury was OK because "everybody lies about sex".

In the big picture, we will be safer in a country where perjury is NOT permissible.
