Yes, it is supposed to be country of laws, but for the
few past years, it looks the country of men.
Men of wealth, who abuse power for their sole benefit.
Disturbing.

Wrong is wrong, Libby should have served his time, but what does that have to do with America being a country of Laws? remember if you are old enough, to Clinton's last day, he pardoned, not commuted but pardoned over 400 convicted felons, including one of the biggest south American drug traffickers that was in prison. and by the way it was not Laws that made America great, all countries have laws the Muslim world has far more, and far harsher penalty from breaking the laws than we do, what made America great was and is the ability and freedom for anyone to become anything they so choose if they have the will, strength and desire to do so, regardless of background, race, or position in life, some examples are, Bill Gates, Rush Limbaugh, Clarance Thomas Condi Rice, Colin Powell, Bell, Edison, Vanderbilt, The list go's on and on

No what makes america great is that anyone with a dream and alot of hard work can make it. This is why so many people from all over the world have came over here to start a better life.
Bush can let libby walk just as clinton did, and also pardoned Mc duggle

America is a country based on freedoms, not laws.
I have no idea why Bush let Libby walk away. Is it really all that important?

First Off: Libby did not commit a crime. He was not the one to leak Plame's name, not that she was covert anyway.
Secondly: America was made great by the PEOPLE, not the government. Our Constitutional System of Guaranteed Individual Rights is what allowed the People to make America Great.

Wow, first somebody declares that Libby wasn't actually convicted by a jury of his peers, next somebody actually doesn't understand what "rule of law" means and blabs about "freedom" (look it up, genius).

Well, reasonable laws, I think. It's hard to remember anymore since Liberals have been taking them away since I was able to remember having the rule of PROPER law. I was 2 years old, then.

and what is YOUR response to all other presidents' pardons over the years? Mr. Bush was justified in what he did and broke no law!

Because he is a Bush crony and didn't have to abide by the same laws as the average citizen.
