As for Scooter Libby, at least he didn't get pardoned. I remember being worried about that. Surprisingly, dubya left it alone. There was a nice little bit of backspin to that, too. On their way out, evidently, dick cheney was upset that GWB wasn't going to pardon Scooter Libby. Snarled that he'd "left a man on the field." Yeah, like using a militaryesque reference as a metaphor, for "poor," "wronged" Scooter Libby meant you'd served your country with distinction, worn her uniform, and put yourself in harm's way like the REAL military does. But, full disclosure - I've never served either, and this opinion is held by someone who believes bush/cheney are guilty of war crimes and were never held to account.
