Thread: When Will Bush Pardon Libby?

Taking bets on how soon after the election, our Coward In Chief will grant Scooter Libby a full pardon, to ensure his silence?

That will be good as Libby did not reveal the name of Vallery Plaim it was Richard Armitage as everyone knows. So why was Richard Armitage not arrested if that is a crime?

That's just BS to protect Cheney who ordered the release of her name.

Considering the entire trial was a political witch hunt... he should have pardon him an hour after the conviction.

It'll happen shortly before he leaves office.

If that were true, I'm sure he would have as a way to stand up against the unjust prosecution of a colleague and friend. When it comes to President Bush's actions regarding Scooter Libby you have to decide which of the following two scenarios is correct:

Either...

President Bush agrees that Scooter Libby is guilty and belongs in jail and that is why he remains there to this day, though he may pardon his friend before he leaves office.

or

President Bush is the kind of person that will allow his friend and loyal employee to sit in jail when they don't belong there, because politically it harms his public image less than an immediate pardon would have.

So... is Libby guilty or is Bush the kind of person who doesn't mind allowing an innocent man rot in prison?

I do not accept your "Alternate Of Choice" sales closing technique.
The answer is that Bush & Cheney were the decision makers in this criminal act, & simply used Libby as the "Getaway Driver." Thus, they are all guilty of the crime of "Conspiracy" at a minimum & probably in violation of RICO Statutes As well. (hopefully the Obama administration will investigate, try & send these guys all to fed. prison. (I have wall space picked out for license plates made by Bush & Cheney)

I won't even get into the Bush/Cheney portion of this... that will take way too much time. But regardless of their involvement, the scenario is still valid.

Either Libby is guilty and sits where he belongs, or he is innocent and President Bush has no problem with innocent people rotting in prison.

We got a President... you got a mid tier aide.... I'm satisfied.

Nice to see that all the rhetoric you spout off about every day and all the things you claim to "believe" all boil down to just a big game. It makes sense now that you don't even take yourself and your own arguments seriously... but then, how could you, right? When you combine that statement above with the examples of your is it any wonder no one else takes you seriously either?

NotMyRealName... a fact that he cannot refute.
