Libby, Bush, Cheney: Look at the Subtext
The reports about Bush refusing Cheney's pleas for a pardon for the Scooter mostly concentrate on the text and not the subtext. Clearly, for Bush, it was his way of breaking free from Cheney's grip. The irony is how little it matters for Bush's legacy. Failure to do anything before and on 9/11, a war based on fraud, the trashing of the Constitution and the economy and the support for grifter capitalism all still stand. It's childish behavior. Though I am glad the Scooter remains a felon and an ex-lawyer.
