So much for checks and balances.
I think that if you agree that Libby obstructed justice (which apparently the President does, as he commuted rather than pardoned) then I think you have to view the commuted sentence as endorsement of obstructing justice, if not downright conspiring to help obstruct justice.
I just hope an RNC email surfaces showing explicitly the deal that was at least implicit here -- that if Libby takes one for the team and doesn't sing, he'll never see the inside of a jail, and Bush will give him a full pardon as he leaves office.
