Here's whats interesting, these liberals (some posting in this thread) are willing to take the New York Times reporters version of a story (Who's past reporters have blatantly LIED and been fired) rather than a government officials version of a story.  Now, I'm not defending the man, but merely pointing out how folks want to persecute him without having all the facts up front.  Imagine if our justice system ran the way people want it to in this thread? We'd clearly be in the wild west circa 19th century lawlessness.

Libby clearly understood the power of information leaked to the press, as the grand jury investigation showed. While Libby avoided television appearances and rarely was quoted by name, he would talk to a few reporters on background. Two reporters -- Time magazine's Matthew Cooper and the New York Times' Judith Miller -- said Libby told them the identity of a covert CIA operative, Valerie Plame.

Rip has a point - an indictment is merely an accusation of wrongdoing, not a conviction.    I should have prefaced my suggested punishment with "if he's found guilty."    I apologize for that, and thank Ripsnort for pointing it out.
