Libby Could Have Gotten 30 years & 30 Months Is Excessive?

Libby not only lied repeatedly to a Grand Jury, but never admitted he lied. And Bush said "I respect the decision of the jury." meaning he believes Libby was guilty. So how can he think Libby shouldn't be punished?

& Susan McDougal served 1/1/2 Yrs for refusing to testify in the Whitewater case.

The problem with comparing Clinton lying and Libby lying is that nobody seems to understand sex is a eprsonal thing, whereas what Libby did undermined national security,

What Bush just did undermined our whole legal system, with it's checks and balances. If he respected thejury's decision, he should have stuck with it. But instead, a little before July 4th, he commutes Libby's sentence. Just you watch, just before he leaves office, he'll pardon him outright.

That's the way this administration works: lie to the people, protect your own and to hell with the country.
