Former Supreme leader Dick on Libby: "A victim of a serious miscarriage of justice."


Former Vice President Dick Cheney disagreed publicly with his boss just four times in the eight years they served together. Yesterday, however, on the first day after the official end of the Bush administration, Cheney disagreed with George W. Bush once more.
Cheney told THE WEEKLY STANDARD that his former chief of staff, I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, whom he described as a "victim of a serious miscarriage of justice," deserved a presidential pardon.
Asked for his reaction to Bush's decision Cheney said: "Scooter Libby is one of the most capable and honorable men I've ever known. He's been an outstanding public servant throughout his career. He was the victim of a serious miscarriage of justice, and I strongly believe that he deserved a presidential pardon. Obviously, I disagree with President Bush's decision."

This is so funny and Cheney must be just joking. Cheney let Libby hang. Cheney could have gotten Bush to do anything even if it was against the law. If nothing is done for the crimes committed by this Administration. We will see another Republican President up date Cheney's book of crime. Yes Cheney used Nixon's but without punishment it will happen again. Next time our Constitution will be destroyed.
