Pardon, Hell!

Seems to be a drumbeat growing, and from more than just the right, to justify a pardon for Libby. This has to be one of the more absurd things that I've heard recently and, as we all know, there is plenty of absurdity going around. Libby's actions facilitated Congress giving Bush the go ahead for his illegal war. 10s of thousands of lives have been lost unnecessarily as a result of that and as a direct result of Libby helping to facilitate it. Yeah, there is no doubt that Libby is taking the hook for bigger fish, but he should be grateful that perjury and obstruction is all he's been charged with. He stands as a fully willing accomplice to murder and should be in the Hague with the rest of them, not waiting for a pardon.
