Kennedy calls on Bush not to pardon Libby

[politicasista]

Hat trick to KG and the Democratic Daily:

Senator Ted Kennedy called on Bush today to “not pardon Scooter Libby”:

“The jury’s verdict confirms the lengths to which the White House – particularly the Office of the Vice President – was willing to go to conceal their effort to vilify anyone who spoke the truth about the flaws in their justification for war. This Administration misled the American people in the rush to go to war, then exposed a CIA operative in an effort to hide their own mistakes, and – through the Vice President’s Chief of Staff – lied to the FBI and a grand jury about those efforts. The Administration’s contempt for the rule of law is breathtaking. President Bush should now pledge that he will not pardon Scooter Libby.”

2. Happy he thought about this. I was thinking Libby would be pardoned by the end of the Bush reign.n/t
