Nevermind the Bush haters, what about Fitzgerald? Why would he go ahead with the whole thing if he knew (and I can't imagine he didn't know) Bush was going to release the guy he worked so long and hard to incriminate?

I answered your question, powerclown....I showed you the page in the RECORD of Libby's sentencing report where it was last explained to the court by the prosecutor....and....it had to pass the muster of Libby's elite, eleven lawyer multi million dollar legal team, a Bush appointed trial judge, and a 3 jusdge appeals court panel that include Sentelle and another republican, AFTER the same argument convinced Libby's jury of eleven citizens, off the street.....
....read it again, powerclown....Libby stopped the investigation....blocked it's progress....and Fitzgerald stated that
<h3>"Mr. Libby lied about nearly everything that mattered."</h3>
Libby's prosecution was not about what Armitage or Rove did..... first or after Libbt lied and obstructed. What incentive is there for any reluctant witness to tell the truth, if norhing happens to the ones who choose to deliver deliberately deceptive answers?
....and the questions that Fitzgerald's investigation attempted to answer?

.....• Were the disclosures made as part of a concerted effort to disclose this
information? and
• Did other government officials direct or approve these disclosures?....

...thanks to Libby lying and obstructing, and now, to Bush's commutation....we will probably never know the answers....and I guess that is OK with ace, and with powerclown.....
....and it wasn't Bush "haters" who investigated, tried, convicted, and were sending Libby to jail, was it? Not a one......
