Cheney Said To Be "Disappointed"
CNN, of course, makes the Libby guilty verdicts all about the Dems begging Bush not to pardon the convicted felon...
Democrats to Bush: Don't pardon Libby
POSTED: 4:10 a.m. EST, March 7, 2007
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Democratic leaders urged President Bush not to pardon former vice presidential chief of staff I. Lewis "Scooter" Libby, who was convicted on federal charges Tuesday.
Libby's attorneys, meanwhile, vowed to seek a new trial, or, failing that, to appeal the jury's verdict.
Libby was convicted of lying and obstructing an investigation into the Bush administration's actions leading into the Iraq war. (Watch Democrats use verdict to pressure president Video )
He resigned after being indicted in October 2005.
Vice President Dick Cheney, in a written statement, said he was "disappointed with the verdict."
"I am saddened for Scooter and his family," Cheney said. "As I have said before, Scooter has served our nation tirelessly and with great distinction through many years of public service."
Hm. Dick is saddened.
I'll bet he's still wondering why Scooter kept his (Cheney's) handwritten notes about how to attack Joe Wilson, too.
Watch out, Scooter! This is far from over for you.
Best bar bet in the world: Delilah didn't do it.
