Re: Bush to commute Libby sentence
[ QUOTE ]
Lewis "Scooter" Libby was Cheney's Chief of Staff: the most senior official officially reporting to Cheney. Libby among at least one other person gave the name of Valerie Plame to reporter Robert Novak (long story). Valerie Plame was a covert agent, which made his action borderline illegal. Libby then went on to lie about his involvement, which is what the federal prosecutor eventually got him for.
