scooter libby got railroaded in a process crime by a special prosecuter assigned by jim comey. since libbys sentence had already been commuted this was a huge GFY to Comey from Trump.

Absolutely spectacular. Comey will be a footnote in history as the fbi director that a President fired and called a slimeball. Think about that for a second. The President of the United States of America not only fired him but called him a slimeball. That is now his legacy. That is his history. Forever.

Meanwhile....

That's different than a pardon I believe. The conviction gets overturned.

Thought you were correct and I farted in my head and was gonna say so. Checked a little and ain't really sure now.

"Defendants must have been convicted, sentenced to death and subsequently either-

a. Been acquitted of all charges related to the crime that placed them on death row, or

b. Had all charges related to the crime that placed them on death row dismissed by the prosecution or the courts, or

c. Been granted a complete pardon based on evidence of innocence.
"

Looks like you can have convictions overturned or pardoned.

Hope that helps.

He wasn't convicted of "leaking." You are 1000% wrong on that.

Remember, it was Dick Armitage who leaked her name, and Fitzgerald knew that. Libby didn't do it.

Scooter Libby didnt Lie and Leak. He also pees standing in the mens bathroom, so its probably just another reason for you to be pissed.

We've got real corruption going all the way to the very TOP of the FBI and I'll bet the DOJ and anyone anywhere gives a schit if Scooter Libby "lacked candor" (this is becoming like "sidebar during OJ...) in his knowledge of who may have leaked the name of some CIA desk jockey? Not even an undercover?

Wasn't Bob Novak close to 90 even back then? Is someone really worried about
re-litigating this?

Man-O, this IG report must be coming out hot and heavy.

The fear is palpable.

Her husband, Joe Wilson, and David Corn at the Nation first leaked Plame's name.

Um that's not what his criminal conviction says. And accepting a pardon is admission of guilt....but cool story bro.

Would you accept my pardon and admit guilt of desecration of normal Gay people.

Youre off topic. This is about Scooter Libby, his crimes, and the pardon of those crimes by Donald J Trump

How many criminals did your Lord Zero pardon?

Libby wasn't a criminal. The DC bar gave him his license back because he was convicted on erroneous testimony. The witness retracted in 2015. And guess who appointed that special counsel? James Comey.

"...Ms. Miller says she testified truthfully at the time, but she later concluded based on new information that she had been led into false testimony by Mr. Fitzgerald. As the White House press secretary said Friday in a pardon statement: “In 2015, one of the key witnesses against Mr. Libby recanted her testimony, stating publicly that she believes the prosecutor withheld relevant information from her during interviews that would have altered significantly what she said.”

Mr. Fitzgerald had called her testimony “critical” to the case in his summation for the jury, and Ms. Miller says that the prosecutor twice said that he would drop all charges against Mr. Libby if he offered evidence against Mr. Cheney. Mr. Libby had no evidence to trade, and Mr. Fitzgerald then set out to ruin Mr. Libby for supposedly lying about a non-crime.

Mr. Bush commuted Mr. Libby’s sentence so he didn’t go to prison. But Mr. Bush refused to issue a full pardon on the basis of bad legal advice, a betrayal of a loyal aide that understandably infuriated Mr. Cheney.
In 2016 the District of Columbia Court of Appeals reinstated Mr. Libby to the D.C. bar after it said a legal disciplinary counsel had presented “credible evidence” in support of his innocence. Mr. Trump’s pardon should now restore his reputation in full.
We recount this history because almost none of it appears in the press accounts about the pardon...."

Contrast WSJ's report with the fake news media filled with TDS:

If the leftists only read their fake news, you can see why they are so deluded.

Speculation is the pardon was a message to Trumps enablers. Keep your mouth shut, take the conviction, and I'll pardon you asap.

Nope.

Trump is simply continuing to correct the dumbf*ck mistakes of people like Obama, Comey, etc.
