Who's Who
Commutation Clamor
Reaction to President Bush's decision to commute the prison sentence of I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby.
It's appropriate.
The president who led the nation into a disastrous war in Iraq by peddling false statements and misrepresentations has come to the rescue of a White House aide convicted of lying by commuting his sentence. Before the ink was dry on today's court order denying Scooter Libby's latest appeal — a motion to allow him to stay out of jail while he was challenging his conviction — George W. Bush commuted Libby's sentence. Libby will no longer have to serve the 30-month prison sentence ordered by federal district court Judge Reggie Walton. He will, though, have to pay the $250,000 fine that was part of the sentence.
The commutation — which is not a pardon and does not erase Libby's conviction — is a reminder that Bush and his crew do not believe in accountability. Bush has been rather stingy in the use of his pardon power. And regulations issued by his Justice Department note that recipients of pardons should serve their sentences and demonstrate contrition before obtaining presidential absolution. (Libby had expressed no remorse and was not scheduled to report to jail for several weeks.) Yet with this commutation, Bush ducked those requirements, and he is allowing Vice President Dick Cheney's former chief of staff, who was found guilty of lying to federal investigators in the CIA leak case, to go unpunished. The fine will be no problem for Libby. His neoconservative friends and admirers will kick in to cover that tab. (Perhaps even Cheney will send a check.)
Libby had become a symbol of the Bush White House's problem with the truth. After all, his lies had been designed to block FBI agents and federal prosecutors from learning the full truth of a White House effort to discredit a critic who had accused the Bush administration of twisting the prewar intelligence. And now the final act in the long-running CIA leak scandal — Bush's commutation — stands as another symbol of this grand theme: lying doesn't really bother this crowd. In the 2000 presidential campaign, Bush claimed he would bring responsibility to the White House and, as a PR stunt, he dubbed his campaign jet Accountability One. Yet with this commutation, he takes the position that in his administration an aide who purposefully misleads government officials investigating a possible national security crime need not be held fully accountable.
This is no shocker. Early on in the CIA leak affair, the White House announced that anyone involved in the 2003 leak that disclosed the CIA employment of Valerie Wilson, an undercover Agency officer, would be booted out of the administration. But Karl Rove, who had disclosed classified information about Valerie Wilson to two reporters and who apparently lied about his actions to White House press secretary Scott McClellan, was not pink-slipped. Bush has never acknowledged this broken promise. (Libby left the White House only after he was indicted in the fall of 2005.)
Bush shielded Rove, and now — better late than never — he's doing the same for Libby. Ever since Libby's conviction in March, neoconservative and conservative Libby partisans have been urging — or demanding — that Bush pardon Libby. They have cried that his indictment, his conviction, and his sentence were travesties of justice. They blasted Bush for declining to intervene in the proceedings, branding the president (their pal!) a coward. They acted as if Bush's refusal to pardon Libby was a personal betrayal of each and everyone of them. They showed more concern for Libby than any of the civilians who have perished in Iraq in the years since they, Libby and their allies engineered the invasion of Iraq. Libby was their cause; he was one of them.
Once again, Bush, being nudged by the neocons, has sent a clear message: telling the truth doesn't matter. Bush has refused to acknowledge that he, Cheney, and other administration officials — to be polite about it — stretched the truth about Iraq and the threat it posed before the war. Today, he says that if you lie to protect the White House (especially the vice president), you can escape retribution. But if Bush, Cheney and the others could get away with big untruths about war, why shouldn't Libby get away with small lies about a cover-up? Fair's fair, right?
The foundation of a democratic judicial system is that the sentence fits the crime. In this instance, the commutation fits the administration.

See all 51 CommentsThe only "travesty" was that it was allowed to go as far as it did. Waste of time, waste of tax money.
Actually, you'll be feeling the travesty right about Nov '08.
especially since her husband FULLY pardoned MANY of his cronies.
I FIND IT IRONICALLY AMUSING THAT LIBERALS GET VERY ANGRY WHEN A CONSERVATIVE ACTS LIKE A LIBERAL.
Bill Clinton = 671 pardons 70 commuted sentences,
George Bush = 114 pardons 3 commuted sentences.

My outrage was right there. That's the difference between Democrats and Republicans. Democrats can take an issue and think the matter through in order to make an informed decision based upon a host of considerations. Republicans just follow their crazy leaders right down the tubes as if they have helmuts on with little beacons on top.

Impeach for lying
Impeach for war-profiteering
Impeach for war crimes
Impeach for treason
Only impeachment will allow the USA to regain the moral high ground.
After removal from office: to jail!
That Valerie woman had no business being a spy for the CIA, and they did her a favor by outing her. Thank God!
No matter what they say about the current administration, I keep remembering that Clinton had s/x. Nothing President Bush has done could be as bad as that.
I thought there was a particularily offensive stench in here.
Again, as always, you are a moron. Trying to explain the difference to you why Bill's pardons, that WERE advocated by the Justice department, and Shrub's commutation of Scooter, which WAS NOT advocated by the justice department, is like trying to explain physics to a dog, it wastes my time and bores the dog.
There's the rub. All the bootlickers that squawk "Clinton did it" are reduced to that facile, anemic excuse. Bush promised better, but has never delivered - it is as simple as that. So don't give me "Clinton did it" - I know, and I expected better.
A war is not as bad a ***?
This is like Nixon's Saturday night massecre.
And all they can do is blame it on Clinton. That's sad.
By the way folks, Clinton is not President anymore.
You cannot be serious! S-e-x vs lieing to get us into a war,thousands of lives lost, and billions upon billions spent and no end in sight. So what, you think that their the same thing? When was the last time you got any?!!?
What Clinton and Scooter have both done is same-lied in court and should have been punished. Clinton was-he was impeached. Libby also was, he just was told to go to his room by Bush.
As a moderate, for you to honestly right (at least I believe you to be)say Clinton's offense was worse than Bush's is completely ignorant and downright offensive.
When is the world court going to investigate Cheney and Bush for war crimes?
When are the Democrats going to hold impeachment hearings to find out the facts?
3500 dead Americans
350000 dead Iraqis
$8,800,000,000,000 National Debt
As for all you self-righteous good Republicans on here that seem to be able to justify just about anything by dragging Clinton into things every time you lack even the weakest of arguments for your band of thieves, realize that real law abiding Democrats and Independents were really upset about the pardons that Clinton gave as well.
That is more than can be said for you, so if you want to justify the actions of your neocons by saying Clinton did this or that and therefore it is all right for Bush you will just continue to sound like kindergartners chanting *** for tat while clearly stating your lack of simple reason and respect for the law and democracy that your party has become synonymous with. Clearly I have to spell it out for you - Two Wrongs Do Not Make a Right.
George Bush = 114 pardons 3 commuted sentences.

Don't forget GW's dad:
Pardoned the entire Iran-Contra gang.
My-my what selective memory loss some people have. Shameful...
neoconnie: In order to say what you just posted you must have one twisted sense of morality. But actually, that's just typical for all of the Bible-thumpin', don't-like-no-learnin' Republican idiots and sleazebags out there. The Republican party has no morality. The next thing you're going to say is that what Mark Foley did wasn't as bad as what Clinton did either right?
Oh neoconnie, I almost didn't see that one. Are you a time traveller from the 1950's or something? Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha,Ha.
Seriously though, you do know about all of the steps Bush has undertaken to undermine our constitutional government right? It's pretty bad. Oops! I forgot that republicans want to burn the constitution! How silly of me! Oh, one last thing, if in your opinion women shouldn't be spies, then what buisiness do you have writing anything, since you are a woman and you obviosly aren't a fan of equality. Now go and mend the stckings before your husband gets home, dear.
Their little plan to betray the USA and people serving the US, have a lower-rung guy take the fall, then quietly pardon him at the end of the term--has backfired magnificently.
The impending prison term and court's denial of delay forced Bush to make a huge ugly gesture that is virtually a confession. They were very likely counting on delaying prison until the end of Bush's term, when he is likely to pardon huge numbers of crooks.
This provides great momentum to impeachment and removal efforts--stop him before he abuses his power more!
How is it that all the Bush supporters do is point at Clinton? Bill Clinton was put through a very public ordeal for his alleged transgressions and the public deemed it so much over so very little. And his pardons were not the stuff of people approving his actions.
Yet he never pardoned anyone connected to the government who was closely associated with beginning a war built on some of the most outrageous lies in history.
I daresay the public isn't amused when lies gets us entangled in a war which has cost tens of thousands of civilians' lives, more than 3500 of our armed service personnel and billions of dollar not being spent to better serve our country. And the outing of a CIA agent isn't looked upon as a small deal.
The 'No Impeachment' pledge needs to come off the table... enough is enough. No country respects us and we are feared more in the world than any other country as a destabilizing force.
Little Georgie ran on a platform of accountability, restoring a sense of honor, honesty and decency in the White House. Yet the biggest political scandal in my lifetime is the Iraq War. Throw in Georgie's (and Cheney's) disdain for following international law, the Constitution, US laws, etc.
This administration's disregard for the law is historic, outlandish and extremely criminal.
"No underlying crime." Valerie Plame, a non-official cover, had a covert status. The CIA has consistently (including George Tenant) testified to her status. To knowingly and wittingly engage in a campaign to blow her cover constitutes a crime.
Fitzgerald did not prosecute Armitage for reasons easily discerned. He knows the identity of the original source of the leaks: he said as much in his statements about Libby. Why did Libby consistently and willfully lie to obstruct the investigation? If there existed no underlying crime why did he try to "throw sand in the face of the umpire" so that Fitzgerald couldn't see? Who was he protecting: the name would be Cheney.
Cheney equals the original underlying crime: Libby prosecuted for clear perjury to obstruct justice in the pursuit of said underlying criminal.
One guy gets called in front of an inquisitor to answer questions about his own private (and consensual) *** life with regards to a politically motivated CIVIL CASE. He lies about his own private sexual relationships.
Another guy gets called in front of a federal grand jury investigating the treasonous outting of a covert CIA operative. This guys knowingly and deliberately lies in order to obstruct justice and protect his boss (a boss who endangered national security and exposed anyone associated with the CIA agent to death).
In your simple mind, Joe Blow-job equates a larger crime than Johnny Treason. Interesting logic you have there Connie ole girl.
BushCo needs to scare us into war - "smoking gun a mushroom cloud" - knowingly lie about "yellowcake uranium" during State of the Union though document clearly a forgery.
Joseph Wilson - former ambassador to Niger and attache to Iraq sent to investigate - exposes the fiction for what it was...a manipulation (i.e. Downing Street Memo) to fan flames of war.
Cheney furious! Demands revenge to not only punish Wilson but to also send shot across-the-bow of the intelligence community: don't mess with our fictions about the war or we will bury you.
Libby, Armitage, Rove, and others knowingly expose Wilson's wife, a covert CIA operative. Novak prints Plame's name & CIA front-operation, Brewster-Jennings, in his column.
CIA demands investigation into treasonous leak - Fitzgerald appointed when Ashcroft recuses himself.
Rove and Libby lie to the grand jury to cover the trail and obstruct justice. Right-wing echo chamber in full blown spin mode, smears Wilson and Plame - Talking Points created to obstruct the facts of the case and blind the ignorant.
Fitzgerald, understanding full-well the source of the original leak (Cheney), opts to charge and convict Libby for perjury and obstruction of justice. Please try to remember the real story here, and not get lost in all the conservative mythology.

Twist it however you want to make you sleep better with your inane reasoning. Facts are, Clinton lied to you, me and everyone else! He lied on camera, then said he did not lie because he had his own definition of a few words. He is a troubled man, and just because he lied about his adultry does not make it any less of a lie. This is just one of the lies we caught him at. He was the President of the United States and lied straight out. He should be held to a higher standard as the President.

On August 17, the President testified for over four hours before the grand jury on closed-circuit television from the White House. In his testimony, he admitted the Lewinsky relationship, but denied that he perjured himself because he did not interpret the conduct with Ms. Lewinsky as constituting sexual relations. On the same evening, he appeared on national television and admitted that he had an "inappropriate relationship" with Lewinsky and had misled the American people about it.
He lied and then lied that he did not lie.
In your perverted mind it is OK for a President to lie and perjur himself, but only if he is a Democrat.

Hillary voted to send us to Iraq. Do not say she had bad information before she made the vote to do so. It is her job to get the right information, she had the right information or she did not do her job. If she did not do her job then, then why do you suppose she will as President?
Once she had voted to send the troops to Iraq she found it no longer popular to support the effort there. Flake. at least Bush has the fortitude and spine to do what is right even if it is not popular.
Now if you can get her to admit is she will tell you she sees the needs for troops in Iraq for another 10 years. Her phrasology was "If I am elected president for two consecutive terms, I see the need to have American troops in Iraq even after I am no longer President." But you think she will bring then all home right after she is elected don't you. Simpleton!
You find fault in Bush, not because he has done wrong, but solely due to his political party.

BUT YOU CAN SAY BUSH IS WORSE THAN CLINTON OUT OF YOUR INFINITE WISDOM, YOUR MOTHER MUST BE SO PROUD.
