Editor & Publisher
Excerpt
NEW YORK Meeting with the Wall Street Journal’s editorial board, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said that Lewis “Scooter” Libby, who promoted the invasion of Iraq, disclosed the name of a cover CIA agent then was convicted of four counts of perjury and obstruction of justice, had “served the country really well.” She hinted that a presidential pardon was in order.
Asked for her views on a pardon, Rice demurred but then came to the strong defense of Libby, stating that he should be treated “in accordance” with his public service. He was sentenced to 30 months in prison last week, convicted on four felony counts, despite letters of support from many highly-placed figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to Gen. Peter Pace.
