Because one was lying about sex, which in their minds is worse than one who lied about something to do with national security.

If Liberals can forgive Bill Clinton for lying to a grand jury ...?
why can't they forgive Libby the same?

What is it that Clinton wasn't "forgiven" for? Clinton was impeached...not tried in court!
Impeached: TRANSITIVE VERB: 1a. To make an accusation against. b. To charge (a public official) with improper conduct in office before a proper tribunal.
Libby was indicted and convicted. The President used his ability to commute his sentence!

Because Libby's indictment and conviction and sentence were more vindictive, considering that the basis of the investigation, the leak of Plame's name, was found to have been from Armitage and that it wasn't a crime (intent is required, by law) PRIOR to the indictment of Libby.
Clinton lied during a trial for his having sexually harassed Paula Jones, in an attempt to deny her justice.

Because he was the President and Libby is/was not.
