The appellate court unanimously ruled today that Scooter Libby has to go jail while waiting the outcome of his appeal. He had asked to be allowed to remain free while the appeal was taking place. This is obviously a dramatic setback. Everything in this case is just senseless. There was never any crime. We knew who made the original leak about what\u2019s her name. It\u2019s just unbelievable. <\/p>\n<p>Now, the president is up there meeting with the KGB today. He has Vladimir Putin up there at Kennebunkport. You know (sigh). It\u2019s time for this pardon. It just really is. A lot of people have made the call on the president to do this and he\u2019s reluctant to do it for a host of reasons, pending the appeal. He wants to wait for the appeal to happen. I don\u2019t see how it could lower his standing in the polls. But he\u2019s not used the pardon that presidents have nearly as much as previous presidents have. I read this, and I just can\u2019t really imagine what it\u2019s like to be Scooter Libby. He\u2019s got to think he\u2019s in a dream or in a nightmare or in the Twilight Zone, and his family as well. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: You know, sometimes the legal system just appears to be broken irreparably.
